Ingredients

Bottom Cookie Layer

½ cup unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup chocolate chips

Gooey Filling

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 large egg
2 cups powdered sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. Make the Cookie Base

Cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add egg and vanilla; mix well.

In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually combine with wet ingredients.
Fold in chocolate chips.

Press dough evenly into prepared baking dish.

3. Prepare the Gooey Filling

Beat cream cheese until smooth.
Add egg, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
Mix until creamy and lump-free.
Fold in chocolate chips.

Spread evenly over cookie base.

4. Bake

Bake for 30–35 minutes until edges are golden and center is slightly set but still soft.

Do not overbake—the center should remain gooey.

5. Cool & Slice

Let cool completely before cutting for clean squares.
The filling will set while staying soft and rich.
