CHEESECAKE BROWNIES

Who loves BROWNIES?! The chocolate-y treats are one of my “go-to” desserts when company comes over, so I like to have several different brownie recipes on hand. When my family saw a recipe for Cheesecake Brownies, they decided to give them a try. Let’s just say I’m so glad they did because this recipe was GREAT!! Let me tell you why…

Brownies on they’re own are simply delicious!
A cheesecake layer in between means you can’t go wrong!
White chocolate chips in the Cheesecake layer make them even better!
SEE! You really can’t go wrong with this recipe. There are a few more steps than the brownies in a box, but I promise they won’t disappoint. Learn how to make cheesecake brownies here.
