Creme Brulee Cheesecake Bars
I made these for my team Christmas party, and they were really good! A couple tips. . .be sure to crush your toffee bits and sprinkle them on immediately after the bars come out of the oven so that they kind of melt and form this creme brulee-like crust on the top. Also, I recommend initially cooling them in the fridge WITHOUT a lid. I did this and they were perfect. However, after the party, I put the remaining bars in the fridge with a lid on it. The condensation made the toffee bits on the top soggy and gross. But, if you have a very big group, there will not be leftover bars to refrigerate!!
1 pouch (1 lb. 15 oz.) Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
1 box French vanilla instant pudding
2 T brown sugar
1/2 c. butter or margarine, melted
2 1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 whole eggs plus 3 egg yolks
2 8-oz. packages of cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 c. sugar
2/3 cup toffee bits, finely crushed (you can find these in the baking aisle near the chocolate chips)
Heat oven to 350. Lightly spray bottom of a 9 x 13 pan. In a large bowl, stir cookie mix, pudding mix, brown sugar, melted butter, 1 tsp. of the vanilla and one whole egg until a soft dough forms. Press the dough into the pan and 1/2 inch up sides.
Beat cream cheese, sour cream and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add remaining whole egg, 3 egg yolks and remaining 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla; beat until smooth. Spread over crust.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until center is set. IMMEDIATELY sprinkle top with crushed toffee bits. Cool 30 minutes, then refrigerate about 3 hours until chilled. Store in refrigerator.
I think you should try baklava at least once in your life because our life is very short so if you missed this delicious dessert then it is sure that you have missed a big thing from your life. Now you may ask baklava where to buy and from where you can get good quality dessert. Okay then I'll suggest you to visit Dubai's any online shop because they always provide very high and rich quality baklava.
