Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • 200 g graham cracker crumbs
  • 100 g unsalted butter, melted
For the Cookie Dough:
  • 100 g all-purpose flour heat-treated*
  • 100 g brown sugar
  • 60 g unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 80 g mini chocolate chips
  • Pinch of salt
For the Cheesecake Filling:
  • 400 g cream cheese, softened
  • 120 g powdered sugar
  • 240 ml heavy whipping cream cold
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Crust:
  2. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
  3. Make the Edible Cookie Dough:
  4. In a medium bowl, cream together softened butter and brown sugar. Add milk and vanilla. Mix in heat-treated flour and salt until a dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips. Roll into small balls or break into chunks. Set aside.
  5. Make the Cheesecake Filling:
  6. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, along with vanilla extract.
  7. Assemble:
  8. Fold cookie dough pieces into the cheesecake filling. Spread over the prepared crust. Smooth the top and add more cookie dough chunks on top for garnish.
  9. Chill:
  10. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight for best texture.
  11. Serve:
  12. Carefully remove from the springform pan. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • To heat-treat flour: Spread flour on a baking tray and bake at 160°C for 5 minutes, then let it cool completely. This kills any harmful bacteria.
  • You can swap graham crackers with digestive biscuits or Oreo crumbs.
  • Add a drizzle of chocolate sauce for extra indulgence!
