Almond Roca Cheesecake Bars
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Crust: Pulse Oreos, 8 Almond Roca, and almonds into fine crumbs in a food processor; add melted butter and pulse to combine.
Press into an 8x8 pan; bake 10–12 min. Cool, then turn oven to 325°F.
Frangipane: Mix melted butter, egg, almond flour, sugar, almond extract, vanilla, and salt; set aside.
Cheesecake base: Beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar, vanilla, and salt; beat to combine.
Add Greek yogurt and eggs; beat until smooth.
Pour frangipane over the crust, smooth into an even layer, then carefully pour cheesecake filling on top.
Set the pan inside a 9x13 dish; fill the dish with water halfway up the sides of the pan (water bath).
Bake at 325°F for 35–40 min, until edges are set and the center jiggles slightly.
Cool to room temperature, then chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
