Instructions
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Prepare a 9x13 inch pan with foil and nonstick spray.
Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Combine with melted butter and press into the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes until set.
Create a water bath by placing a rimmed baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven, filled halfway with water.
Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually mix in sugar, sour cream, and vanilla until creamy. Fold in flour gently.
Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined. Fold in 1 cup of mini chocolate chips.
Pour the filling over the cooled crust and sprinkle any remaining chocolate chips on top. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the edges are set but the center jiggles slightly.
Cool bars at room temperature for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours until chilled.
Notes
For extra indulgence, serve with vanilla ice cream or chocolate sauce on top.
