This recipe is delicious! It was very easy to make and very yummy! They were a hit! Other reviews said the brownie to cheesecake ratio wasn't what they hoped, but I doubled both the brownie and the cheesecake and made it in a 9x13 baking dish and it was PERFECT!!

This recipe was delicious and easy. The brownies were AMAZING! However, I agree with rbnbarrientos regarding the ratio of cheesecake to brownies. I also doubled the cheesecake portion. I also drizzled a little of the brownie mixture on top for a little extra flare.

This recipe was easy. The brownies were moist and the cheesecake part made it even better. However, the brownie to cheesecake ratio was not enough. Next time, which will be soon, I will be doubling the cheesecake part so it can be balance.
