Step 1: Brown Your Butter - Start by melting the cold butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir it constantly until it smells nutty and turns a deep golden brown. Let the butter cool slightly, then mix it with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth.
Step 2: Make the Cookie Dough - Stir in the egg, egg yolks, and vanilla extract. Fold in the flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch (if using) until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Set aside HALF the cookie dough for the crust.
Step 3: Bake the Cookie Base - Press half the cookie dough into the bottom of a 9 inch Springform Pan. Bake at 325°F for 15 minutes.
Step 4: Whip Up the Cheesecake Filling - Beat the room-temperature cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add the sugar and sour cream, mixing until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 5: Assemble and Bake - Pour the cheesecake batter over the slightly baked cookie base. Drop chunks of the remaining cookie dough into the cheesecake batter. Prepare a water bath and bake at 325°F for 60 minutes.
Step 6: Decorate and Serve - Pipe on some whipped buttercream if desired. Crumble the remaining cookie dough on top. Slice into 12 pieces and serve.
