Dessert---Week Two (Cookie Cheesecake)

For week two I made a Cookie Cheesecake. It was very simple to make and required very few ingredients. This is the finished product:


I know I know it doesn't look like the most appetizing dessert. It wasn't bad but in my opinion it wasn't that good. I did get alot of mixed reviews. The kids loved it thought it was great and some adults thought it was tasty and some adults thought they just ate poop. It might have looked better and tasted better if I had used a smaller pan but I tried.

RECIPE:
COOKIE CHEESECAKE

1 (2o oz.) pkg. refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1 c. strawberry preserves
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/4 c. sugar
1 c. sour cream
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1 (8 oz.) container whipped topping, thawed

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Slice refrigerated cookie dough into 1/4 inch slices, and place in the bottom of a 9x13x2 inch pan. Spray the tips of your fingers with nonstick cooking spray and press the slices together to form a crust. Press to pan edges. Bake for about 10 minutes or until light golden brown. The dough will puff while cooking but fall when removed from the oven. Carefully spread the strawberry preserves evenly over entire surface. In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese and sugar. Beat at medium speed until fluffy. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Pour mixture over preserves, again spreading to pan edges. Bake for an additional 25-28 minutes or until browned on top or knife inserted into cheese layer comes out clean. Cool completely before serving. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream. Keep leftovers refrigerated.

GOOD LUCK!!!
