Snickerdoodle Cheesecake Bars are the perfect answer when you can’t decide between a cookie, a brownie or a piece of cheesecake.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe!

These Snickerdoodle Cheesecake Bars are a triple threat. All the flavor of a Snickerdoodle with the addition of a creamy cheesecake layer and the yummy texture of a blonde brownie!

I love me some chocolate but I have to admit, I’ll take a blondie over a brownie any day. And when you combine the blondie with my favorite cookie, Snickerdoodles, it can’t be beat.  Now, if that wasn’t enough goodness, the creaminess of cheesecake layer makes it impossible to resist!

  • Cream cheese 
  • Sugar. Granulated sugar and brown sugar
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla extract
  • Flour. I use unbleached all purpose flour
  • Salt
  • Baking soda
  • Butter
  • Cinnamon

How to Serve Cheesecake Bars

You can serve these easy snickerdoodle cheesecake bars chilled or at room temperature. They are perfect either way. They can sit at room temperature for up to six hours and then should be refrigerated.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I store leftover snickerdoodle cheesecake bars?


Because of the cheesecake layer they need to be stored in an airtight container in the fridge. They will last for 2-3 days.

Can I freeze cheesecake bars?

You can freeze them by wrapping in plastic wrap or foil. They will last in the freezer for up to 2 months. I like to wrap them individually.

How do I know when cheesecake bars are done?

The bars will be done when the top is golden brown, the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
