- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar

In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar. Add in the flour, baking soda, and salt, and stir until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Press the dough into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
