Base
  1. 1 box yellow cake mix
  2. 1/2 cup butter, melted
  3. 1 egg
Cookie Dough Filling
  1. 1/2 cup butter, room temp.
  2. 1 cup light brown sugar
  3. 2 tablespoons milk
  4. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  5. 1 cup flour
  6. 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  7. 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Cream Cheese Layer
  1. 8 oz. cream cheese, room temp.
  2. 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  3. 1 teaspoon vanilla
  4. 2 eggs
  5. 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a 9X13 pan with foil and spray with pam.
  2. In a large bowl, mix cake mix, egg and melted butter. Press into pan.
  3. Next make the Cookie Dough Filling. In a large bowl cream the butter and sugar together. Add the milk and vanilla. Beat in the flour and salt. Stir in chocolate chips. Spread on top of cake base, leaving 1/2 inch around the edges.
  4. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add in eggs and vanilla. Beat in powdered sugar until smooth. Pour over Cookie Dough layer.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes until edges are lightly golden and center is almost set but still jiggly.
  6. Allow to cool completely before transferring to fridge.
  7. Chill at least 2 hours (I like to overnight) and dust with powdered sugar before cutting into squares.
