Mint Cheesecake Bars

I can hear you already going what on earth is that?????





Well.....If words like “Bars” make you think, “Ew, weird, clicking away now." Don’t–click away!




Avoiding things that sound weird will keep you from enjoying things that taste amazing.





So onto the recipe...

 

First things first



Ingredients:



Crust:
1/3 cup butter
1 cup crushed chocolate graham crackers

Filling:
1/2 cup sugar
16 ounces cream cheese
2 whole eggs
3/4 tsp peppermint extract
2 drops green food color

Glaze:
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/2 tsp butter flavored shortening










Second things steps...

Heat oven to 350°F. Melt butter in 8-inch square baking pan in oven (4 to 6 minutes). Stir in crushed graham crackers. Press crumb mixture evenly onto bottom of pan. Set aside.

Combine all filling ingredients in small bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until smooth. Spread filling over crust. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until filling is set. Cool completely.

Melt chocolate chips and shortening in 1-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth (2 to 3 minutes). Drizzle over cooled bars; refrigerate until firm. Cut into bars. Store refrigerated.
