Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake Bars

I've mentioned this before but I've been following Chelsea over at Anchors Aweigh for some time now and she posts some of the absolute best recipes out there. When I saw this recipe, I knew it was going to be on the menu for the week. It did not disappoint. Jillian Michaels would not be very happy with me at the moment because I did indulge in one of these. Okay, two. I mean, three. Whatever, I ate several and I'm not mad about it. I ended up bringing over half of these to work because I knew if I kept them in my house my waistline would hate me and I'm working hard for the wedding.

It goes without saying, these were a hit at work. I can't believe how easy it was to make these. If you've got the itch for something sweet and love cheesecake, you'll obsess over these.

Oh...and it's Friday. Go ahead and do that little happy dance of yours. You know you want to. No one's judging :)
