Mix wet ingredients by adding them one at a time. Once it's completely mixed, add the dry ingredients 1/2 cup at a time. If needed, use the spatula to to push down remaining flour into the batter. Once mixed, add chocolate chips and mix.

Get some spray (ex. pam), wax paper, and a 9 x 9 pan. Spray the your pan to avoid sticking. 

To layer the cheesecake cookies, you'll start with cookies on the bottom. Pour the entire cookie batter in the bottom of the pan. If needed, smooth it out using wax paper. After, pour the cheesecake batter on top of the cookie. 

Put the cheesecake cookies in the oven, which is set at 350 degrees, for about 30-40 minutes. Cook until golden brown on top. 

Cook, Cut, and Eat

Take the cookies out and let them cool for about 10 minutes. Cut them into squares and place them on a plate to cool further. 

There you go, now you have cheesecake cookies!
