Chocolate and Vanilla Cheesecake Bars

🧂 Ingredients

• 23 Oreos

  regular or double stuffed
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter

  melted
• 16 oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 2 large eggs
• 3 oz Baker’s semi sweet chocolate

  melted & cooled
• 3 tablespoons Chocolate Sauce
• 1 candy bar to make chocolate shavings

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Prepare an 8×8 baking pan with non-stick
  spray. For easier removal, you may line the pan with foil or parchment paper;
  spray the liner with non-stick spray.
• 2 Start by melting the chocolate in a microwave-safe dish. Cook for 30seconds,
  stir the chocolate and cook for another 10 seconds if needed. Set aside to cool.
• 3 Using a food processor, crush up the Oreos until they are in fine pieces. Add in
  the melted butter and process until all the Oreos are coated. Press the cookie
  crumbs into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside. 
• 4 In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and
  creamy. Add in the sour cream and mix again. Add eggs, one at a time, and mix
  well after each egg. 
• 5 Scoop1 cup of batter to reserve for later. If the chocolate is completely
  cooled, mix it into the remaining batter. Pour the chocolate batter over the
  cookie crust. Then spoon dollops of the reserved batter all over the top and
  swirl the two batters with a knife.
• 6 Bake for 40 minutes until the edges are a light golden brown and the middle is
  almost set. Cool and refrigerate for a few hours before cutting. 
• 7 When you are ready to cut the bars, slice the cheesecake into 16 bars and then
  drizzle it with the chocolate sauce. To make chocolate shavings, use a vegetable
  peeler and shave the candy bar's sides all over your cheesecake's top. Enjoy!
