How to Make Chocolate Eggnog Cheesecake Squares

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a 13x9 inch baking pan with heavy-duty foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Lightly grease the foil with cooking spray.
**Crust:**
In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs and ¼ cup (½ stick) melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
**Filling:**
In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces cream cheese (softened) and 1 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
Beat in ⅓ cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup eggnog, and 3 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Gently fold in 1 cup mini chocolate chips.
Pour the filling evenly over the crust.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is just slightly jiggly (it will firm up as it cools).
Let cool completely in the pan for at least 1 hour.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to fully set.
Sprinkle evenly with freshly grated nutmeg before serving.
Cut into 48 squares (8 rows x 6 rows).
Lift the cheesecake out of the pan using the foil overhang.
Store in the refrigerator.
