Chocolate Chip Cheese Bars

• 1 tube (18 oz) refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
• 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 egg

1. Cut cookie dough in half. For crust, press half of the dough into the bottom of a greased 8" square baking pan.

2. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and egg until smooth. Spread over crust. Crumble remaining dough over top.

3. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers.

Note: 2 cups of your favorite chocolate chip cookie dough can be substituted for the refrigerated dough.
