Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bars

This recipe is one of our favorite family recipes. However, so often we forget to take pictures because we're usually taking them to some potluck kind of get-together. So I made this recipe the other day for us and just a few friends and actually remembered to take pictures. I figured I'd repost it so you can see how delectably delicious it really is. Hope you enjoy!
