With two kinds of cookies in the crust, a cheesecake center, and a cookie and candy topping, these bars are truly naughty!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Adding a few extra ingredients turns these cheesecake bars into naughty cheesecake bars. Chocolate chip cookie dough is baked to form a cookie crust. On top is a layer of chocolate sandwich cookies and a creamy, tangy, and sweet cheesecake layer. Then they're sprinkled with crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and milk chocolate malt candies. The combination of chocolate, malt, chocolate chip cookie, and cheesecake creates a naughty and indulgent dessert.
