New Recipe Tuesday: Cheesy Daddy DiNozzos

Everyone loves cheesecake. A lot of people like cheesecake. I'm not really sure why, seeing as I personally cannot stand the stuff, but it doesn't really matter. I just make the stuff, I don't eat it. I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to make for this Tuesday night, but in the end, the choice was clear.

A lot of people like cheesecake and everyone likes cookies. Put those together and what do you get? The Mother Father of All Cookies. What better way to celebrate the night in NCIS history that we've been waiting 150 episodes for?

Cheesy Daddy DiNozzos
Ingredients: 
5 tablespoons of butter, softened
1/3 cups of brown sugar
1 cup of flour
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1 (8 oz) package of cream cheese
1 egg
2 tablespoons of milk
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla
Directions:
1.) Heat oven to 350 degrees.
2.) Blend the butter, brown sugar and flour with a fork until it makes coarse crumbs.
3.) Remove about a cup of brown sugar mixture and press into a lightly greased 8x8 inch pan. Bake for 15 minutes.
4.) In another bowl, combine the cream cheese and sugar, mixing it until smooth.
5.) Beat in the egg, milk, lemon juice and vanilla; mix until well combined.
6.) Spread cream cheese mixture over the baked crust, sprinkling with the remaining brown sugar mixture.
7.) Bake for 25 minutes.
8.) Let cool completely before chilling for one hour.
Notes: This recipe was taken from here. The serving size is about 16 cookie bars, but I don't think I'm going to get quite that many.

 
 
 
FYI, the pan is not dirty. It's from being lightly greased.
 

I'm so excited to chill these bad boys so I can cut into them and get them to my guinea pigs officers for the official taste test. I'm positive that my Cheesy Daddy DiNozzos are going to pass with flying colors.

  2. My guinea pigs all enjoyed it! I was a little disappointed though because it wasn't so much a cookie bar as it was just a square cheesecake lol.
