Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake

I created this recipe to combine two of my all-time favorites, cheesecake for the grown-up in me and chocolate chip cookie dough for the little girl in me. Sour cream offsets the sweetness and adds a nice tang. Everyone who tries this scrumptious treat loves it. --Julie Craig, Kewaskum, Wisconsin

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake (continued)

Directions (continued)

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in
sour cream and vanilla. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until
combined. Pour over crust; set aside.
In another bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add
water and vanilla. Gradually add flour and mix well. Stir in 1 cup
chocolate chips.
Drop dough by teaspoonfuls over filling, gently pushing dough below
surface (dough should be completely covered by filling). Place pan
on a baking sheet.
Bake at 350° for 45-55 minutes or until center is almost set.
Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around
edge of pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight.
Remove sides of pan. Sprinkle with remaining chips. Refrigerate
leftovers. Yield: 12-14 servings.
