Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350째F (175째C) and prepare a 9-inch by 9-inch pan by lining it with parchment paper and spraying it with cooking spray.

  2. To make the crust, use a hand mixer to beat the butter and sugars in a large bowl until they become light and fluffy. Then, beat in the egg and vanilla. Add the flour and salt, stirring just until combined, and fold in the chocolate chips.

  3. Press the dough evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 20 minutes. Allow it to cool.

  4. Lower the oven temperature to 325째F (163째C).

  5. While the crust is cooling, prepare the filling by beating the cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar in a large bowl until smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla, and salt, and beat until combined.

  6. Pour the filling over the crust and bake until the cheesecake only slightly jiggles in the center, approximately 40 minutes. Turn off the oven, prop open the oven door, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour.

  7. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  8. To make the cookie dough, beat the butter and sugars until light and fluffy in a large bowl using a hand mixer. Then, beat in the milk and vanilla. Add the almond flour and salt, mixing until well combined, and stir in the chocolate chips.

  9. Roll the dough into small
