Our friend over at Tidy Mom has this to say about this recipe:
“What caught my attention most was BROWNIE Cheesecake. Being big brownie lovers in this house, I knew adding cheesecake to the brownies could only equal pure bliss!”
I know what you mean! That’s the very same reason why I decided to try this recipe. It’s chocolate and cheese combined in one delicious dessert. I really couldn’t explain it, but the combination of cheese and chocolate is truly heavenly. You have to try this!
