Chocolate Cheesecake Squares


These are delicious and give a cheesecake taste in a small portion, if you can stop at one square!

Cookie Base:

1/2 cup shortening with
1/2 cup sugar (white, brown or a mixture)
Add
1 beaten egg and mix well

Measure
1 cup all purpose flour and add
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

Add
1 cup of miniature dark chocolate chips
and press mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan.

Cheesecake topping:

Beat with an electric mixer
2-8 oz packages of cream cheese with
2 eggs and
1/2 cup sugar

Spread cheese mixture over cookie base and sprinkle top with
1/2 cup of chocolate chips

Bake at 350F for 30-35 minutes. Cut into squares when cool.
