Ingredients

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 5 tablespoons coconut oil you can also use melted butter
  • 16 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 egg
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups chopped Milky Way pieces
  • ½ cup chocolate chips for the filling I used dark chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup chocolate chips for the topping
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips for the topping

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix together the coconut oil - or melted butter, depending on what you used - and graham cracker crumbs and pat down into a 8x8 baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 9 minutes and then allow to cool while you prepare the filling.
  • For the filling: Beat cream cheese, egg, sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy, it should take you two or three minutes. Mix in the Milky Way pieces and chocolate chips and pour over your cooled crust. Top with additional chocolate chips and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the cheesecake is firm and the edges are golden brown.
  • Cool for about 30 minutes and then refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. Just cut into bars and enjoy!
