Ginger Cheesecake Bars

What could be better in the heat of Summer than a refreshing and cool cream cheese bar? Mike made these bars using the recipe in Martha Stewart's Cookie Book (pages 272-273) and displays them on Martha's small, square cake stand from Macy's (a birthday present from Elaine - thank you)!  A non-traditional crust is made with ginger snaps instead of graham crackers, and chopped, candied ginger is mixed with the cream cheese filling. They make for a wonderful twist on the classic cream cheese bar, and are especially good slightly chilled!
