Hi Jody! You’ll likely need to melt the biscoff or Nutella a bit to help it spread but those toppings will be fine, just be aware they won’t likely become firm (and don’t heat them too much or they’ll become greasy). Haven’t tried the recipe with your other modifications though to say how that will go, but I hope you love the cheesecake bars!

I’m looking to do this recipe but in place of melted chocolate I want to use either nutella or biscoff spread. would that work following the same directions? or I was thinking even to try 1/2 melted chocolate and half nutella. What do u think?
I’m going to use an 8×8 inch pan though, and use 16oz cream cheese and 2 eggs.

Hi Abe! You will likely need more, but they should work. ๐Ÿ™‚

Hi Sylvia! We think you would need to almost double the recipe to fit it in a 9ร—13 pan. ๐Ÿ™‚

I would like to make the chocolate cheesecake for a family gathering and wondered if I used a 9×13 pan, do I just double the recipe, or would I need to make 2 9×9 pans? It looks like a delicious dessert, especially with the Oreo cookie crust.

Hi Kaylee! I’m so glad you have enjoyed them! I actually have a few tips sprinkled throughout the post to help prevent cracking. ๐Ÿ™‚

In reply to Sam.

Hi Sam. Iโ€™ve made these twice already and my whole family loves them! I was wondering if you could offer me any tips to prevent cracking? I always get lots of cracks and while itโ€™s still delicious, yours is so much prettier! I bake in an 8×8โ€ and yes.. some batter gets sacrificed in the end after not fitting ๐Ÿ˜ข. Is my pan just too full?
Thank you!

We’re sorry they didn’t measure up to your expectations, Christa ๐Ÿ˜ž Sounds like you may enjoy our regular cheesecake bars a little more.

I forgot the small information about adding foil or parchment paper and just sprayed the pan only. The batter made one large round pan and a very small round pan. The small one turned out perfectly with no cracks. The other cracked with 20 minutes still remaining on the timer.
I can’t say that its bad…it really is good. I just can’t put my finger on it, but it feels like something is missing. I don’t know if it’s the slight lemony taste I enjoy with my regular cheese cake or what it could be.

Jayne, can you find block creamcheese online or through a dairy ?

I made this yesterday and let it chill overnight. It came out perfectly! The tip about using parchment paper was awesome – when the mixture contacted, the paper remained โ€œadheredโ€ to the sides and I didnโ€™t have any cracks. It was also ridiculously easy to lift the whole thing out of the pan. I absolutely LOVE your recipes and instructions!! Thanks so much.

Hi Jayne! Unfortunately I’m not sure how the spreadable type of cream cheese will hold up. I believe it typically has additives to make it more easily spreadable and could prevent the cheesecake bars from setting properly. That being said, if you do try it and it works well I would love to know so I can relay the info to others. ๐Ÿ™‚

Thank you.

Hi Kailey! Unfortunately I think the milk chocolate is the issue here. It’s much milder and adding all of that extra chocolate probably caused the sinking issues. It is sweet even when you don’t use milk chocolate. I would give it a try as it is written and I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. ๐Ÿ™‚

Hi Sam!
This is the first recipe of yours I made and it was almost perfect! I like a sweeter chocolate so instead of dark I used milk. Probably a mistake, lol. When I first tasted the batter with the 8oz you recommend I could barely taste it. I ended up using the whole bag (11.5 oz). After baking and chilling, the edges seemed a bit burnt (and tasted a bit burnt) and the entire cake sunk around the edges ๐Ÿ™
I cooked it at the temperature and time you recommended. Do you think it sunk becuase of the extra chocolate? Any thoughts on how to correct this next time?
Even though it sunk it was still DELICIOUS and perfect in the middle. Love this recipe.

Hi Sandra! That should work, but I’m not sure on a bake time. ๐Ÿ™‚

Hi Esther! I’m honestly not sure of a non-dairy substitute. Hopefully someone else can chime in with some ideas.

Is there anything I can use to substitute for the sour cream? I want to make this non-dairy. Can use soy cream cheese but donโ€™t know of any non dairy sour cream substitute.
