Golden Oreo Cheesecake Bars

Alright kiddies...you want it...you got it! Here it is... the recipe that you have all been waiting for! Da Da Di Daaaa! Oreo Cheesecake Bars!  This dessert doesn't even need an introduction. This is the one recipe that everyone I know asks me for.  It has been described as "sent from heaven." Haha, I would be lying if I said that wasn't true, but it is. The funny thing is that you can make this even if you are not a baker, because there is really no baking involved.  Here is what you need.

24 Golden Oreos
2 Tbs butter or margarine, melted
25 Kraft Caramels
1 Tbs of water
2 (8 ounce) packages Phiily Cream Cheese, softened
1 (7 ounce) Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme
1 Egg
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place 14 of the cookies in the food processor. Process until finely crushed.. Mix with butter.
Press firmly onto the bottom of a 9x9 inch baking pan. Bake 10 min or so until golden brown. Cool 10 minutes.

Place caramels and water in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high, 1 min. or until they are completely melted, stirring every 30 seconds if needed.
Side Note: They are going to be very HOT! Be careful when touching bowl and pouring the caramel!
Coarsely chop the remaining 10 cookies. Beat the cream cheese and Marshmallow creme in a large bowl with mixer on medium speed until well blended.

Add in egg, mix well. Stir in chopped cookies, and pour over crust. Drop spoonfuls of caramel mixture over batter. Swirl for effect.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until center is set. Cool completely.
 Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Makes 20 bars. Store in a tight container in fridge.
