What can I say about these cheesecake brownies? They are delicious and simple and a fun take on regular brownies. I love cheesecake. So it’s a natural fit, right?
I found this recipe in another church cookbook. Have I mentioned that I collect old cookbooks and church cookbooks? Because I honestly think they have the best recipes in them. I grabbed a Campbell’s cookbook from the 70’s the other day and can’t wait to jump in and make some “vintage” recipes. I’ve tried hundreds of recipes over the years and easily the most successful ones come from either my Mom (Hi Mom!) or old cookbooks.
I am never quite sure how to properly credit older recipes. 90% of the recipes you see here on 30days are from family, friends and church cookbooks. The other % are from online sources (which I make sure to credit so you know where they came from) and ones I’ve made up. I only share the ones that my family really likes but realize that everyone has their own cooking style. Something I love love love might not be other people’s favorite.
I like to error on the side of under cooked rather than over cooked. If you more of a over done baker, you might want to let these cook a little longer.

One of my friends husbands has told me my brownies are the best! And I always make them out of the box. I just don’t over do them and I think that’s the key (which obviously anyone can do — and I’m not trying to toot my own horn here).
Looks delicious! Thank you for the recipe!
Cheesecake brownies!! They are super-awesome!! Thankyou so much you made my day!
This is so pretty, it’s almost a shame everyone’s going to eat it! I love marble everything, so this looks like it will really hit the spot.
Yummy! Great combo of chocolate and cheesecake.
I also collect old and church (preferably both) cookbooks. They usually only call for things I have in my pantry and are almost always delicious. My favorite finds were a microwave cookbook from Australia and one put out my a local church 40 years ago. I also have a couple of Amish cookbooks; they have recipes that can really feed a crowd!
These look amazing!!!
