Time 50m

Yield 25

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ cup all-purpose flour
⅓ cup white sugar
⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
6 tablespoons cold butter
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
5 drops green food coloring
¼ cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Mix flour, sugar, and cocoa powder in a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Set aside 1 cup of the crumbs to be used as the topping. Press remaining crumb mixture into an ungreased 8x8-inch baking pan.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until set, about 15 minutes. Remove and let cool. Keep oven on.
  • While crust is cooling, beat cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add egg, peppermint extract, and green food coloring; beat well. Stir in milk until batter is smooth. Pour batter over the cooled crust. Sprinkle reserved crumb mixture on top.
  • Bake until filling is set, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool before cutting into 25 bars.

These cheesecake bars were a delightful treat! The combination of chocolate and mint was perfect, and the cheesecake filling was creamy and smooth. I also loved the graham cracker crust, which added a nice crunch to each bite.
