Peppermint Bark Cheesecake Brownie Pie

Peppermint Bark Cheesecake Brownie Pie: A brownie pie topped with white chocolate cheesecake and peppermint bark is sure to get you in the holiday spirit.

Right now we are living in a winter wonderland.  The last few days it has snowed quite a bit.  The ground is covered in fluffy white, and the trees are glistening with the snow.  It looks beautiful...but can I be honest with you?  I am a snow hater.  (Ducks as invisible snowballs are hurled)

Oh, I kind of like it at this time of year.  Who doesn't want to wake up on Christmas morning to a white winter wonderland.  But then it can melt 😉  But alas, I am in for a long few months of cold and ice and cold and snowy days...and did I mention cold?

The older I get the less I can handle being cold.  Although at least being cold, you can put layers and layers of clothes on and sit in front of a space heater.  I've got one blasting at my feet right now.  When you are hot, there is only so much you can take off.  So, I guess that is one bright spot to being cold.  Bring on the layers.  

I love to bake in layers too.  These brownie cheesecake pies are starting to become a regular around here.  So, I just knew I had to come up with a fun holiday version.

Brownie, cheesecake, Cool Whip, and peppermint bark.  It is Christmas joy in one bite.

I even decorated it with layers.  This peppermint bark is so easy to make.  Melt chocolate chips and spread on a prepared pan.  Let it set and top it with melted white chips.  A fun sprinkle of crushed candy canes gives it the holiday touch.

Go ahead and break the bark into bite sized pieces...and yes, snack on some while you do this.  You will have enough to bake in the cheesecake, decorate the top, and snack some more while you wait for it to cool.  Maybe even wrap it up in a gift bag and hand it out to someone just to say thank you.

Of course I recommend you taking them a slice of this Peppermint Bark Cheesecake Brownie Pie too.  They will love you even more.  Then sit and chat about the weather and the holidays.
