Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownie Recipe
Karly Campbell | Buns in my OvenRed Velvet Cheesecake Brownies make for a perfect Valentine's Day treat. Or really a treat for any day of the year...
Turns out that there are three types of people in the world.
The first type are the true foodie people. They would not even dream of eating something made from a box mix. Hamburger Helper? Puh-lease.
The second type? Well, homemade brownies just aren't their thing. They prefer the boxed version. Why mess with perfection, right? Also, reading a recipe is hard.
And the third type of person is, well, me. I make my own ricotta cheese for pasta dishes. I sometimes make my own tortillas on taco night. I make biscuits from scratch. Then I turn around and eat Stove Top Stuffing every chance I get and buy packages of refrigerated cookie dough for emergency situations.
Basically, I'm an enigma wrapped in a homemade croissant topped with a slice of Spam. Okay, no. Even I would not purchase or eat Spam. A girl has to have some standards.
Anyway, I hope you're the third type of person too. We can be friends. Let's bond over these Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies.
Sure, I could have made the brownies from scratch, but I wanted a quick treat that wouldn't interrupt my Pretty Little Liars television time. Bonus points: This treat is perfect for Valentine's Day! It's a gift for you because it's easy and a gift for your loved ones, because, well, it's Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies.
