I have become more than a little addicted to Pinterest. It took me a while to really buy into it, but now I’m hooked. And this recipe, which I made for our holiday party in December, was a really great Pinterest find. The recipe was posted on Kitchen Meets Girl’s blog, from Freutcake. But these would be delicious anytime. The cheesecake layer keeps the brownies moist, so if you accidentally slightly overbake them (which happens all the time with Red Velvet) they still stay moist and yummy. These were pretty great.
