Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips, reserving a handful for garnish.
Divide the cookie dough into two portions. Press one portion evenly into the prepared pan to form the cookie base. Set the remaining dough aside for the topping.
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and sour cream until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg yolk and lemon juice to the cream cheese mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
Pour the cream cheese filling over the cookie base in the pan and spread it out evenly.
Crumble the remaining cookie dough over the cheesecake layer, leaving some gaps to allow the filling to peek through.
Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips over the top of the dough.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cookie topping is set.
Allow the dessert to cool completely in the pan, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the chilled dessert out of the pan. Slice into bars or squares and serve!
