- Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

- Stir in ½ cup miniature chocolate chips.
- Press the mixture into the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of the prepared pan.
- Bake for 6 minutes, or until set. Cool completely on a wire rack.

- In a large bowl, beat 8 ounces cream cheese and ¼ cup granulated sugar at low speed until smooth.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until just combined.
- Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust.
- In the same large bowl (clean it first), cream together 5 tablespoons (70g) unsalted butter, ¼ cup packed brown sugar, 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt at medium speed for 1 minute, or until light and fluffy.
- Reduce speed to low and gradually beat in ½ cup all-purpose flour until just combined.
- Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips by hand.
- Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of the cookie dough evenly over the cheesecake filling.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is dry and set when gently shaken.
