Cooking Steps
- Grease a 9x5-inch metal baking pan with 1/2 tsp butter. (TIP: Use the butter wrapper to grease the pan!)
- Line the base and sides of the pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang off the sides. (TIP: The overhang will make it easy for you to remove the freezer bars from the pan later.)
- Place chocolate chips in a small heatproof bowl.
- Add 4 tbsp cream to a small pot. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until cream comes to a gentle simmer, 2-3 min. (TIP: The cream is ready when small bubbles form along the sides of the pot.) Carefully pour hot cream over chocolate chips.
- Let stand for 1 min before gently stirring with a spatula until chocolate is incorporated and mixture is smooth.
- Set aside.
- Melt 6 tbsp butter in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Stir in half the icing sugar, oats and 1/8 tsp salt. Cook, stirring often, until oats are golden, 6-7 min.
- Add 3 tbsp chocolate ganache, then stir to combine.
- Transfer oat mixture to the prepared baking pan, then press into an even layer on the bottom of the pan (TIP: Use the back of a measuring cup to press the mixture down.)
- Place in the freezer to set, 5-10 min.
- Add cream cheese and remaining icing sugar to a large bowl. Beat with a hand whisk or electric mixer until combined and smooth, 1-2 min.
- Add remaining cream. Beat until mixture is smooth, 3-4 min.
- Pour cheesecake batter over chilled crust.
- Spoon remaining chocolate ganache over cheesecake in teaspoon-sized dollops. Insert a small knife or skewer into the batter and gently swirl chocolate ganache throughout.
- Place cheesecake in the freezer until firm, 1-2 hr.
- Remove cheesecake from the freezer and run a sharp knife around the edges of the pan.
- Gently pull on the parchment paper to remove cheesecake.
- Cut into bars or squares, then transfer to a plate.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
