Apple Golden Raisin Cheesecake Bars consist of batter or other ingredients that are poured or pressed into a pan (sometimes in multiple layers), and cut into cookie-sized pieces after baking. Brownies are an example of a batter-type bar cookie, while Rice krispie treats are a bar cookie recipe that doesn't require baking. Cut Apple Golden Raisin Cheesecake Bars into desired number of pieces.
