I needed brownies and Reeses BAD!
So I just whipped up this yummilicious pan of goodies.
I loved them…
My thighs…not so much,
but oh well, they will get over it.
I might have to work out extra hard this week
to make up for eating so many š
Want me to share them with you?
What??? Your thighs said “No thank you”
Well, you know what???
Too bad!!!
They were way too good not to share:-)
I am sure your thighs will forgive you after the first bite!
First gather all your ingredients for the recipe.
I may have gone overboard on the Reeses…
NNNNNAAAAAAHHHH!
This is a Reeses lovin household…
not a thing as too many here!!!
Oh sweet bowl of chocolatey peanut buttery goodness!!!!
I just want to dive into you head first.
Remember Duck Tails

it would be much better if the pool was filled with this š

Ever seen (or rented) the movie “ET”? I bet your favorite scene is when the boy gave him the…you guessed it! Reeses piecesĀ® I don’t think ET would like cheesecake, but he loves the reeses piecesĀ® on top of these bars.. as for these cheesecake brownie bars, I love to make these. Maybe for sweetest day. š
Carrie says
What do you do with the sweetened condensed milk????
Jocelyn Brubaker says
It is in step 2 of the recipe. You add the milk after you beat the cream cheese and butter, then beat it again. I hope you enjoy them š

Would have been helpful to know what brand brownie you used. I don’t normally make anything from a mix, but was in a hurry to get it done and was at the store for the other ingredients anyway, and all the brownie mixes were for an 8×8 pan or 9×9, not 9×13. So I mixed 2 boxes, and followed the rest of the instructions. Well it has now been over an hour and the inside in the middle is still not baked. After 50 min I put the pan in my convection oven, since the cupcakes I was also making were finished, and it was still burning too much on top after 10 more minutes in the convection, and still not baked in the middle. So I covered the top in foil and continued baking for another 15 min. Just took it out, top is burned further yet, almost as brown as the brownie on the bottom, and finally the toothpick is coming out without unbaked brownie batter clinging to it. If they still taste good when all is said and done, I will try again, but next time I’m baking the brownie first, and then adding the cream cheese batter to bake.

I am so sorry to hear this. But you needed to use a box mix for a 9×13…mixing 2 8×8 or 9×9 will yield more batter than you need which is why it didn’t bake right for you. For this recipe I used a mix from Aldi. I know Pillsbury and a few other brands do have a brownie mix specifically for the 9×13 size. Brand doesn’t matter…size does. I hope you give it another chance using the right size pan. Also, brownies and cheesecake set up more as they cool, so over baking is not recommended.
Liz says
I was at least able to salvage most of it, just cut off the crust around the edge. The surface on top is too burned to taste great as well, but when I bite together with the brownie, I hardly notice it. My fiends who are coming tonight will still eat it. š I have never seen those brands in any grocery store in my area. My guess if you are in the US, there’s a lot of things people talk about using there that Canada seems to not believe in or something. Unbelievably, this is still good enough that it will be gobbled up! But next time I will find a from-scratch recipe online, or not be so greedy and use all the batter from 2 boxes. I suppose I could bake some in another dish, so as not to waste…. just wouldn’t feel right throwing out brownie!
