Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake





Did you know that yesterday was National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day? I need to get myself a calendar and start marking these things down for next year. It just so happens that I had made these little cheesecakes a while ago and never did a post about them because my husband didn't love them (more about that later). However I thought these would be perfect to share with you this Monday morning.






The recipes are simple and the method is easy. I used the classic chocolate chip cookie recipe off of the back of the Nestle Tollhouse chocolate chips bag. I divided the dough into 6 equal portions and baked the cookies in well-greased mini (6 inch) springform pans for about 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool completely. When cooled prepare the no bake cheesecake. I have been using this cheesecake recipe for years so I'm not really sure where it came from. It's pretty classic, nothing out of the ordinary. Pour your cheesecake over the cooled cookies and refrigerate 5 hours (or overnight). Just before serving sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. As I said, my husband didn't quite rave over this recipe so I hesitated sharing it with you. But it really is delicious. He's just more of a fruit guy when it comes to cheesecake.





Sometimes you have to agree to disagree, right?








Classic No Bake Cheesecake

Ingredients:
·        2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
·        1/4 cup sugar
·        1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
·        1 teaspoon lemon juice
·        1 cup heavy whipping cream (can substitute 1 8oz tub Cool Whip or about 3/4 of a 12oz tub)

Directions:
1. Beat the cream cheese until smooth, then slowly add the sugar and vanilla.
2. In a clean chilled bowl, beat the whipping cream until soft peaks form.
3. Slowly beat the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
4. Spoon filling onto cookie crust. Chill for 4-6 hours before serving.





I originally made this for my teenage brother. He was a supporter of the recipe from first glance all the way through to the last bite! Enjoy! And happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day to you!

Cookie and cheesecake is one of my favorite combinations! Your individual cheesecakes look fantastic and I love photo with the chocolate dripping down the sides!

This is a perfect recipe for National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day. I am glad you posted it. My husband and I agree to disagree often!

Becky

Great recipe for National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, which I didn't even know about. I like the mini size so cute!

Apron Appeal

I'm glad you posted a cross section of the crust because that looks to be the best part.

Food Glorious Food!

The cheesecake is perfect! Love the simple recipe! Also... love your cute table mat :)

"Little" cheesecakes? They look awesome!

Liren

I know what you mean, I am sometimes hesitant to post recipes that my husband does not favor, but sometimes you just have to go with your gut. These look fantastic, I'm glad you decided to post it!

Lauren

Oh man...This looks dangerous!!! :o)

Wendy Irene

Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! Chocolate Chip cookies are my absolute top favorite dessert and I'm glad to see they have their own day :) Enjoy your relax time later!!

ASingleMothersJourney

This looks amazing!

Carolyn

Okay, why, why, why didn't your husband love these? I can tell from a single glance that I would love these. And I need a calendar with all of these national food days too, I am woefully unaware of them.

Rosemary

I wish I would have known about the chocolate chip ce;ebration, but I'd make this anyhow!! Two faves together!

Shabs

I love your pictures , they look so good and whenever I see cheesecake I am already hooked , good one katrina :)

bridget {bake at 350}

sweetsbysillianah

now you have me craving choc chip cookies... =P

Linda @ Lemon Drop

OMG, this looks INCREDIBLE !! I love the height of the cake - so much sweet goodness :)

Megan @ Pip and Ebby

Oh my dear goodness, you could not have possibly caused me to salivate any more than you just did. Beautiful! Delicious! Great photos! Nicely done!

Gourmantine

I'd have to disagree with your husband. Anything that has so much chocolate on it is just deemed to be good! And if you think that it's a cheesecake to start with, then you just can't go wrong! Beautiful as always! :)

Audra@The-Baker-Chick

Katrina this looks amazing! I love the idea of a cookie crust. How creative!

Rachel @ Baked by Rachel

They look so cute! Love the idea even if your hubs didn't rave about it :)

Christina

Oh My. I've died and gone to heaven looking at these pictures. I need this now!

Cassie @ Bake Your Day

I can't believe how awesome this looks and then you come to the ingredient list and there are only four items, awesome! My husband loves cheesecake and he will be enjoying this very soon!

Sylvie @ Gourmande in the Kitchen

I'd be a supporter of this too, especially with that extra drizzle of chocolate!

amanda @ fake ginger

I certainly wouldn't complain about a cookie cheesecake!

Rachel @ Rachel's Recipe Reviews

I think this looks divine! The best of all worlds! And easy? I'm in!

Angela@RecipesFromMyMom

I'm guessing your hubby doesn't like eating raw cookie dough either, or licking frosting shots out of a little cup. Oh well, at least you get to eat more of your choc chip cookie cheesecake all to yourself.

Holly

Katrina, Katrina, Katrina.. Girl, this LOOKS SIMPLY AMAZING! OMG, I'd give anything for a big ol piece right now! : )

Kate from Scratch

*knock knock* Did somebody call for more of me in their life? Well, baby...you make this cheese cake and i will be beating down your door, for sure. Are you freaking kidding me. I will make this and I will get fat and I will love it. I need it in my belly....now. ;) Fabulous post. Wonderful recipe. Fantastic job, as per usual, chica.

blackbookkitchendiaries

this looks so lovely and very sinful!:) thank you for sharing this post with us and have a great day.

Lisa

Oh my goodness, this cheesecake is sinful - in a good way. I'll have a slice with your malted milkshake, after I eat the stromboli! Thank god you don't live in my neighborhood - I'd be rolling myself over every day :P

The Harried Cook

That looks very, very appetizing! I am not a huge chocolate fan, but my husband would LOVE a slice (or two) of that... :) Thanks for sharing!

RavieNomNoms

Oh man!! That is a serious cheesecake right there! I love how think the crust is and that super yummy layer of chocolate chips on top...looks absolutely heavenly!

briarrose

How could the hubby not love this mile high cheesecake? ;) Looks wonderful and I love the mini size. I must shop for this smaller springform pan.

Andrea @ strawberry-chic

Silly husbands! I've never seen this combo before, but it looks so good!

Tammy

Wow this looks incredible! How anyone could not love this is beyond me! So glad you did post it!

xx,
Tammy

Erin

I am a little late with National Chocolate Chip Cookie day - I am making mine today. Hopefully the holiday will forgive me! This looks wonderful! I love that they are little, and that they have a cookie crust!! Good work, yet again!

Lindselicious

I love the picture of the inside shot of the cheesecake. You can see all of its deliciousness! The chocolate chip crust looks yummy.

Emily @ Life On Food

I love celebrating food days, especially when it involves chocolate chip cookies. I am with you though, it is so hard to be update on them. This recipe looks amazing. I cannot believe it was an old post. I would have been itching to post this this second it was done. I want to eat it up.

Carrie @ Pure and Yummy

OH MY GOODNESS!!! Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite thing on the planet and cheesecake ranks very high up on this list also. This sounds amazing and so easy. I am going to try it very soon! My husband probably won't be a big fan either, but like you, I am prepared to agree to disagree. Thank you so much for sharing!

kita

This cheesecake looks divine! I love the cookie crust.

Chris's Gourmet Fashion

What a great cheesecake... can't believe the recipe came off the back of a packet. I think the baker had something to do with the results here :)

Sue

Happier Than a Pig in Mud

Stopping by from Singing With Birds. Looks great, I've copied the recipe! Have you made a bigger cake with this recipe? I have an 8" pan and I'm wondering if it would work in that, or if the recipe needs to be doubled? Thanks:@)

Readable Eatables

1kimkelly@gmail.com

MMM!!! My daughter would be all over these... and she could whip them up herself!!! Well done!! I'm afraid I'd have to purchase double the chocolate chips though as she seems to have a habit of eating them while baking then we run out!!

Kimberly

Oh good Lord.... That is one HUGE and AMAZING cheesecake... Totally saving this one for my Father In Laws birthday this year as he loves cheesecake!

Kitchen Belleicious

SONIA

Ciao ^_^ lieta di conoscerti, questa cheesecake è una visione paradisiaca, bravissima!
Ti seguirò con grande piacere, sei già nella mia blogroll ;D
A presto

Corina

hi what do you mean by separating the choc chip crust dough into 6 portions???? So you don't actually just push it into the spring pan?

Katrina {In Katrina's Kitchen}

Hi Corina! I made these in mini springform pans - there were 6. YOu could of course adapt the recipe to make one large cheesecake. I hope that answers your question. :)

Alexandra

Wow! Cheesecake and fuit, cheesecake and candy, cheesecake and cookies...it all works for me! Looks delicious! Thanks!!

COFFEE. CLEAN. CUPCAKE.

oohhh my!! yes please! i sooo wish i had one of these to go with my coffee RIGHT NOW!!
thank you for deciding to share!!

Jackie

This looks amazing! Can't wait to try it. I am sure my husband will disagree with yours, he LOVES chocolate on anything!

Thanks for sharing! This sounds divine, I am for sure going to give this one a go!

Katie Rhoads

Wow! I'm so excited to make this. I don't have mini-springform pans. Would this whole recipe even fit into one regular size springform pan??

Katrina {In Katrina's Kitchen}

Hi Katie! Another blogger adapted my mini cheesecakes to a full size pan- here are his results :) http://cookinwluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/tuesday-tutor-featuring-in-katrinas.html

Joe

As I type this, my cream cheese is almost at room temp, and the cookie is baking in the oven, in the springform. Slight modification on my part, though -- i'm using a wonderful key lime cookie dough i found, which i added white chocolate chips to. I will put the cheesecake on top of that, and top it with a white chocolate ganache. Can't wait to see how this comes out!!!! thanks for the recipe!
