Reeses's Cheesecake Brownies!!!


REESE'S CHEESECAKE BROWNIES- This recipe is something I've been drooling over for weeks, but I've never gotten around to it. With so much school work combined with sheer laziness I have run out of time in the day. Hopefully, I will manage to make time and make this delicious square of goodness.  It looks amazing but so unhealthy so plan on 2 and a half hours of prep time cooking, and 2 hours working it off. The great thing about this recipe is that all of the ingredients are familiar, so if you are a little health conscious you can swap out chocolate chips for dark or sugar free chocolate, the whipped cream for light cream, and the cream cheese for light.  I found this recipe on pintrest if anyone wants to check it out! http://pinterest.com/pin/174021973071196611/ 
I love this desert because it combines so many of my favorite things... cheesecake, peanut butter, chocolate, M&Ms, and brownies!!! If your are a Reese's lover, this is for you!!!! The cooking part is really easy, but it does take a lot of time. So, if you have a big enough craving to spend a lot of time on it, this is an AMAZING treat. I hope you like it and I hope its as good as it looks!! Tell me what you think!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
Prepare a 19.5-oz. box of chocolate fudge brownie mix according to package directions. Spread the batter in the pan and set aside.
In a large bowl, beat one 8-ounce package of softened cream cheese with a hand-held mixer until fluffy.
Add:
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
Beat until smooth.
Stir in a 12-ounce package of Reese's Pieces candies.
Spoon the mixture over the brownie batter and spread evenly.
Bake for 40 minutes or until the cheesecake layer is set and the edges are golden brown. Cool for 30 minutes and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Add the following ingredients to a small microwaveable bowl:
One 12-ounce bag milk chocolate chips
3 tablespoons whipping cream
Microwave on high for 1 minute, or until the chips are melted. Stir until smooth. Spread over the cheesecake layer. Sprinkle 12 large Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (chopped) over the top. Store covered in the refrigerator.

I hope your enjoy!!!
