Decadent Peanut Butter Cheesecake Brownies

Talk about dessert today. In one bite you will be blown away with fudgy brownies and creamy peanut butter cheesecake with a few crunchy chocolate chips. This is the brownie recipe you need to bookmark.

Not only are these delicious, they SUPER easy to make. My husband came home yesterday and said he was taking a quick shower. By the time he was ready, my brownies were already in the oven. He was so surprised how fast I finished.

Personally, I love the combination of the sweet and savory flavors of both. Tons of chocolate flavor that pack a punch with the delicate flavor of peanut butter cheesecake. Tastes just like a candy bar.

You can cut them in 9 big brownies, or smaller bars. My kids prefer them in mini size. This recipe can yield 36 small cubes of goodness.

Serve dessert with a nice chilled glass of organic milk. You can even dip them in the milk. If cookies can, then brownies too.

I hope you can try this delicious Peanut Butter Cheesecake Brownies at home. If you do, please upload a pic on Instagram and tag me @Livingsweetmoments or use the hashtag #LivingSweet. I promise to repost it.
