Cookie Dough Cheesecake

Hello and welcome to Todd's kitchen. In the past i have made a raw cookie dough recipe i have also made a raw cookie dough ice cream recipe but boy do i have a surprise for you today So join me today as i make my version of a cookie dough cheesecake So we are going to start of by making our base. So i have some chocolate cookies here What i have done it run them through a food processor, now if you don't have a food processor just out them into a zip lock bag and break them up with a rolling pin. Just until you get a bread crumb type consistency Next pour in our melted butter Give it a good mix through until well combined Next i have a spring form pan here that i have lined with non stick baking paper. So with our cookie and butter mixture, just place that in and spread out Next with the base of a cup we want to push it down now just push down until it is nice and compacted Next place this into a pre heated oven at one hundred and sixty degrees celsius for six minutes Next into a mixing bowl place in our softened cream cheese and to soften it i have let it sit at room temperature for about thirty minutes. Next using a hand mixer or a stand mixer we are going to mix this for a few minutes just until it comes up nice and smooth Now that the cream cheese has softened we are going to crack in one egg the our half cup of sugar then a teaspoon of vanilla extract Then mix through until well combined Now we are going to start on our cookie dough topping. So into a mixing bowl pour in our melted butter then our sugar then a teaspoon on vanilla extract Then mix until well combined and the sugar has dissolved. Once mixed add in our plain flour. then mix through until combined Now thats what we should be left with, a nice crumby mixture so to that add in our chocolate chips then give it a quick mix Now i have our base here that has cool down since taken it out of the oven. Next place our cream cheese mixture just on top Then spread it out until even once its nice and even grab your cookies mixture and pour it on top and just spread it out just so its nice and even and just lightly push it down, not to firm you don't want it to firm with the base of a cup Once done place it back in the oven for twenty five minutes I have taken it out of the oven and had it cooling down for about twenty minutes So as a final step i have some chocolate here that i have melted in the microwave and placed it into a zip lock bag next cut the tip of just like so and just make some lines just along the top of the cheesecake So the chocolate on top is optional but it does add a nice touch to the top of the cheesecake. Now place this into the fridge for a good two hours to completely completely cool down I have taken it out of the fridge, but up a slice and its looking wonderful. You have that chocolate cookies base, you have the cream cheese filling and you have the wonderful cookie dough topping topped of with some drizzled chocolate and as you can see it was very easy to make But lets see what it tastes like. oh that is really good that really really taste good To have that cream cheese mixture mixed in with that cookie dough mixture that sets it of it really really does its like a match made in heaven it just works works trust me. This is one cheesecake im proud to say tastes simply delicious So if you like cheesecakes and you like cookie dough mixture like i know allot of you do Give this a go because i can tell you now you will not regret it.
