Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 (8 oz/226 g) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 2 (16.5 oz/467 g) rolls refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
  • ¾ cup (150 g) sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Coat a 9×13-inch glass dish with cooking spray, ensuring complete surface coverage to prevent adhesion.
  2. Cream Cheese Blend: Whip cream cheese, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract into a smooth, velvety mixture that radiates uniform consistency.
  3. Cookie Dough Base: Slice cookie dough rolls into delicate ¼-inch rounds, meticulously arranging them edge-to-edge across the dish’s bottom, gently pressing to eliminate potential gaps.
  4. Layering Process: Spread the cream cheese mixture uniformly over the cookie dough foundation, using a spatula to create a balanced, comprehensive layer that embraces the entire surface.
  5. Top Layer Creation: Strategically position remaining cookie dough slices atop the cream cheese, guaranteeing full coverage and visual appeal.
  6. Baking Technique: Slide the dish into a preheated 350°F oven, baking for 45-50 minutes until the surface transforms into a golden-brown landscape and the center achieves a slightly firm texture.
  7. Cooling and Setting: Allow the dessert to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate to solidify layers and enhance flavor intensity.
  8. Serving Presentation: Once thoroughly chilled, slice into precise bars, unveiling the tantalizing layers of this decadent dessert creation.

Notes

  • Prep Surface Carefully: Use non-stick cooking spray generously to guarantee easy bar removal and prevent frustrating sticking.
  • Blend Cream Cheese Smoothly: Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature and mix thoroughly to eliminate lumps, creating a silky, uniform texture that guarantees creamy perfection.
  • Layer Cookie Dough Precisely: Cut cookie dough slices consistently at ¼-inch thickness and arrange meticulously to create an even, seamless base and topping for professional-looking bars.
  • Chill for Optimal Texture: Allow complete cooling at room temperature and refrigerate for several hours to set layers, enhance flavor development, and achieve the ideal firm yet creamy consistency.
