Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then mix in the dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Chill dough for 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare Cream Cheese Filling: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla, and salt, mixing until integrated.
  3. Assemble Bars: Grease a baking pan or line with parchment paper. Press two-thirds of the chilled cookie dough into the bottom. Pour cream cheese filling over the crust, spread gently, and drop remaining cookie dough over top.
  4. Bake: Bake for about 45 minutes until edges are golden brown, and the center is slightly jiggly.
  5. Cool and Slice: Let cool on a wire rack for at least an hour. Once cooled, slice into squares and enjoy!
