These have a deliciously sweet, caramel-y, nutty filling with a flaky pastry! Easy to make, easier to eat! Just made these cookies and they are delicious – used homemade pie crust – did not pre-cook pie crust – filling is amazing and not sweet like I thought they would be. Follow the instructions to the tee – low and slow for the filling is exactly right – making a lip on the pie crust a must. These are great!!!! I love these cookies.

This is totally the type of dessert I could eat. all. by. myself. It looks SO dreamy! I get the feeling that a certain someone in my life might never forgive me if I scroll past this recipe without making it for him I make a similar no-bake cheesecake, minus the Oreos, and I love it. I can’t wait to try it with Oreos! I’m making it right now. One tip that I’d give is to use powdered sugar instead of granulated. It blends into the cream cheese so much easier and smoother. My recipe is way sugary-er – I use one 8 oz package of cream cheese, one of 8 oz cool whip, and 1 cup of sugar. I could definitely see cutting back on some of that sugar though.

Made it and loved every bit!! Was amazed when I took a spoonful and the choch flowing... Giving a molten lava feel:)  Just tried this earlier for my hubby's birthday and it was like heavenly delight! Though it is sweeter than most of the cakes I had and baked before, this will definitely be one of my favorites and a go-to recipe for my hubby since he cannot have eggs in any of his food. I'm sure this will be a hit next time with any of our family gatherings. But will have to cut a bit on the sur though. My kids love it too especially that ooey-gooey chocolate at the bottom of the pan. And indeed, goes BEST with ice cream! Love this recipe, one of my fave comfort foods. This is very yummy!
