Tips for Making Cherry Cheesecake Brownies

In the recipe and photos, the cherry pie filling is added to the top of the cheesecake brownies in dollops. If you want EXTRA cherry flavor, feel free to spread the cherry pie filling more liberally on top of the cheesecake brownies.

Alternatively, you can create a cherry cheesecake swirl by adding the cherry pie filling with the cream cheese (cheesecake) mixture in step 6, and then run a knife through the top to make a marbled or swirled look. From there, bake for 35 minutes or until cheesecake sets. Allow to cool and then refrigerate until ready to serve.
