Pumpkin Cheesecake Brownie Bars are a combination of two beloved desserts – brownies and cheesecake. They are fantastic! They combite two different though perfectly matching tastes of warm and rich chocolate brownies and tender, light and fresh cheesecake. And the colors! – eye popping!
A unique dessert. Highly recommend you try!
