How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake

 
I have made a few cheesecakes in the past so I was thrilled to find one I have not tried. Another thing I liked about this recipe is that it halved well. 
 
  Because I was not entertaining or wanting too much of this decadent dessert in my house I decided to halve the recipe and make it in a 6-inch spring-form pan.

Cheesecake with Condensed Milk

I had never made a cheesecake using condensed milk before. Instead of adding milk and sugar you can just add a can of condensed milk in your cheesecake for another great shortcut. 

How to Make a shortcut  Cookie Dough Crust for Cheesecake

I have used crushed up cookies, whole cookies for mini cheesecakes and even crushed up graham crackers for Cheesecake crusts but never cookie dough.

You can make your own cookie dough I guess, but for a crust, the refrigerated tube is a great short cut. For the cookie dough crust, use a 1 16-oz package refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough and press into your springform pan.

Adding measured out Egg Beaters to this cheesecake mixture is so easy.  Simply beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sweetened condensed milk; beat well. Add vanilla and egg beaters; beat on medium speed until smooth.

 Toss 1/3 of the miniature chocolate chips with 1 tsp flour to coat. This step prevents the chocolate chips from sinking to the bottom of the cheesecake.

Can I make cheesecake ahead of time?

This is ready for the oven.  It is best to make cheesecake a day ahead of time as it needs a lot of time too cool and let the flavors meld together.
