If you enjoy Gingerbread and Cheesecake, you'll love this version of such a drool-worthy dessert! Gingerbread Ooey Gooey Bars use a Gingerbread Cake Mix in the crust layer, they're topped with a Cheesecake layer, a white chocolate chip layer and then after baking they're sprinkled with powdered sugar for the topping. They're ooey, gooey and delicious and will make any holiday table festive and beautiful. Excellent option for holiday or tailgating parties, or a Christmas Cookie Exchange.

Instructions
Mix cake mix, flour, butter, and one egg together.
Press into a greased 9x13” baking pan or dish (or spray with cooking spray).
Because the mixture is sticky, I sprinkled several tablespoonfuls of flour over top and then pressed/patted the mixture into the cookie sheet pan with my hands.
Mix cream cheese, 2 eggs and powdered sugar with an electric mixer until well mixed.
Spread over top of crust layer.
Sprinkle white chocolate chips over top.
Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes.
Do not overbake.
Tent with foil after 20 minutes so the white chocolate chips don’t burn on top.
Remove from oven.
Cool completely.
Sprinkle heavily with powdered sugar.
Cut into bars when cool.
Refrigerate.
Notes
NOTE: You may find it easier to refrigerate bars for a few hours before cutting into bars.
