I thought I would do something special for today since it is Valentines Day. My husband doesn't really care to deliver heart shaped anything to co-workers but this year I did it anyway! :)
I don't think there is much to say about these. The pictures tell you everything you need to know! They are really, really good! So easy and cute!
I baked these on a sheet pan and then when they were completely cool cut them into strips just wide enough for the heart shaped cutter and place that on a cutting board. It was easier to do it that way then try to dig the cutter out of the pan. :)
We don't really celebrate Valentine's Day but I do try to make { or bake } something special....just because. Not that I need an excuse but I feel better about eating something like this if it is for a "special" day!
Here is the recipe. Bake some today for someone you love. They will love you back:)
Happy Valentines Day!!!
Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies
Brownies:
1 box red velvet cake mix
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
Topping:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 large egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
- Beat together the cake mix, butter, egg, and water until well combined. Dough will be very thick and sticky. Press the batter into the prepared pan.
- Beat together the cream cheese, egg, sugar, and vanilla until well combined. Drop by the spoonful onto the brownie dough.
- Bake brownies for 10 minutes and then remove from the oven and run a knife through the dough to swirl the cheesecake througout. Return to the oven and continue baking for 25 minutes or until set.
- Cool completely before cutting.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
