  1. I made this for a party, and it was a huge hit! It was absolutely delicious. My friends were delighted that two of their favorite flavors, cheesecake and cookie dough, were together in one dessert! I actually forgot to put the mini chocolate chips on top, but I don't think anyone minded. It disappeared quickly and I received many compliments and requests for the recipe. And I thought it was relatively easy to make, since it uses store-bought cookie dough. Thanks, Erin, for sharing this recipe. :-)
     
  2. Different taste that i expected ~~~ Floury taste to it (no flour) ~~ Still tasted good and edible!!
     
  3. Everyone loved this cheesecake! I made it as directed without any changes (although I did put a pan of water in the oven below the cheesecake). I will make it again and it will probably be soon. I was thinking that the next time I make it, I'll pour some of the batter in, drop some cookie dough pieces and then repeat the process. I thought that this would make for a more even placement of the cookie dough if I could see where the pieces would be ending up. Thank you so much for posting this recipe!
     
  4. this was very good...hit the sweet tooth just right :-) i think i still prefer my cheesecake without that sour cream aspect...but, it's all preference

  1. I served mine by my homemade mini vanilla gelato Ramekins!
     
  2. AMAZING! I couldn't find chocolate wafers so I used chocolate graham crackers instead. This was a more dense & cheesy cake, which is how I like my cheesecakes. While baking, I felt that my cake was not set enough at 45 min. so I continued to bake to 55 min., but it ended up cracking while it cooled. I think I'll stick to a lower bake time next time. This was a yummy cheesecake and one I'll make regularly : )
     
  3. When I took this cheesecake to a party, people thought it was from a restaurant. I was also told it was the best cheesecake they have ever tasted. For the crust I used about 2 cups of ground Oreo cookies. I finished the cheesecake with a chocolate glaze poured into a circle on most of the top of the cake instead of the mini chocolate chips. In the future I would line the pan with parchment paper so I can remove it from the pan bottom. I was not able to get the cake off of the pan bottom so I served it as is. Also, I would increase the amount of baking time from 45 minutes. The center inside of the cake was too soft and did not set correctly. This did not effect the taste of the cheesecake. With the chocolate glaze on top, it made for a very rich, delicious cheesecake which I will make again.
     
  4. Absolutely delicious! This is now on my list of favourite cheesecakes! I subbed graham crackers for the oreo crumbs (I was out) and coated the cheesecake with a chocolate glaze and swirled melted caramel into the top. What a combo! It was over the top! I just love the way the cookie dough blends into the cheesecake. PS: For anyone else making it, it may seem like there is too much batter/dough for the pan, but it really is ok. It makes a lovely tall, even-topped cheesecake. No cracks either!
