Thank you to all who supported the Bake Sale. Kari raised a whopping $1200!
Although I’ve posted the cream cheese brownies recipe before, I thought that I’d update it with a new photo and a clean recipe that you can print.
In case you didn’t already know this, these are kinda my favorite. As in, I end up eating almost the entire batch in a couple of days. Something about the creamy, delicious cream cheese filling sandwiched between the fluffy brownie and an amazing crust at the top.

Hahaha, well, there is now the matter of a dead body in the yard. No, I’m kidding, but he asked me if I had the recipe and demanded I make him more when we run out. As if I know how to turn on an oven.
Thanks for this recipe. I made these for a holiday treats exchange over the weekend, and they were an exceptional hit.
Glad you liked it! These are my favs!
