this is a great dessert,ive switched up the recipe a little and used turtle brownie mix instead of regular brownie mix and squeezed the caramel pouch over the top of the cheesecake along with melted chocolate and walnuts,my family and friends love this turtle brownie cheesecake

I made this recipe for the first time about 3 years ago for an office party. It came out looking amazing like something you would buy at the store, ofcourse their were left overs and i brought it home to my husband who loved it! now everytime there is a special occasion this is the first thing that pops into his head! It tastes great and is surprisngly easy to make, my husband loves it with the brownie mix that has chocolate chunks in it and it really does make it that much better!

This recipe was so easy. I loved it. I did make my brownies from scratch and I used splenda sugar as I am a diabetic. My family raved about it.

This is absolutely an awesome recipe! I have made this a million times and every single time everyone who has eaten it, loved it. I have people ask me how to make it, to send the recipe, make it for them etc! This is 100% a holiday winner (or anytime for that matter)! If someone does not think this is a good recipe they either- dont like brownies, dont like cheesecake or didnt make it correctly!
