Cheesecake Brownie Bars

I can't think of two better desserts than cheesecake and brownies. Can you? These Cheesecake Brownie Bars bring together the best of two worlds. They're topped  off with a thick, rich chocolate layer and it almost like biting into a cheesecake candy bar.

I took a look around the recipe archive here on Flour On My Face and noticed something disturbing!

Oh hey by the way have you noticed the new Flour On My Face recipe index page? You may have missed it because if you ever visited the old recipe index page it was pretty confusing and not so pretty. Now it looks so much better.

When I had the site redesigned a few month ago my recipe index page also got a face lift. Go check it out. Now you can find my recipes in one convenient place with preview photos organised by category.

for instance if you are looking for a Flour On My Face Strawberry Recipe you can find it right there or search through the categories by the drop down menu or the search bar.

So what I discovered when I was looking through the recipe archive was that I don't have many chocolate recipes!! How can that be? I mean I love chocolate. I do have a couple of chocolate recipes.

My all time favorite Nutella Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies and my new Crock Pot Triple Chocolate Cherry Cake recipe.

I also have this Nutella Double Stuffed French Toast recipe that is crazy good and perfect for a special breakfast or brunch but as much as I love Nutella I don't think it qualifies as a "chocolate recipe."

I'm not sure why I haven't made very many chocolate recipes so I am going to have to make a point of sharing chocolate recipes in the upcoming future.

This Cheesecake Brownie Recipe is like eating a brownie that has been topped with cheesecake and frosted with a thick chocolate frosting.
