To prevent cracking with the cheesecake, make sure to mix the eggs in on low. The air that gets introduced into the eggs at this step will cause the cheesecake to rise with the air bubbles while it bakes.
Another tip to prevent cracking, is to let the cheesecake sit in the turned off oven with the door cracked for 15 minutes. The slow cool down will help prevent the cracks.

The most unexpected bliss in eating this bar is the contrast in different textures and flavors. The pecan crust is nutty and crumbly, the cheesecake is ever so silky and smooth, and you have the big bits of chocolate chips in the cookie dough.
