Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Base
- Crush the Cookies: In a bowl, combine the crushed cookies with a little melted butter (about 2 tablespoons) to create a cohesive mixture. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9×9-inch baking dish or a lined pan.
Step 2: Make the Creamy Filling
- Mix the Filling: In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the Filling: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cookie crust, smoothing it out with a spatula.
Step 3: Chill and Coat
- Chill the Mixture: Place the dish in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to let the filling set.
- Melt the Chocolate: While the filling sets, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth.
Step 4: Assemble and Serve
- Coat the Treats: Once chilled, remove the dish from the refrigerator. Cut the treat into squares or bars, then dip each piece into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Add Toppings: Place the coated treats on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If desired, sprinkle with toppings before the chocolate sets.
- Let It Set: Allow the chocolate to harden at room temperature or refrigerate for quicker results.
Tips for Success
- Flavor Variations: Experiment with different cookie flavors or add-ins like mini chocolate chips or nuts for extra texture.
- Storing: Keep the treats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week—if they last that long!
- Serving Suggestions: These treats are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a simple dessert at home. Serve them alongside coffee or tea for a delightful pairing.
