    Baileys Cheesecake Swirl Chocolate Brownies takes two of my weaknesses, Chocolate

    Brownies and Cheesecake and rolls them into one amazing dessert and both are given a flavourboost with the addition ofBaileys Irish Cream .

    What should have been a verysimple dessert took me forever, actually seemed like hours. Ivelearned and mastered many techniques since beginning my journey intobaking and desserts but

    for some reason mastering the art of acheesecake swirlisnt one of them.

    Thesechocolate fudge brownies have double the chocolate goodness by way of the cocoa and

    the melted chocolate; both together provide a very deep rich chocolate flavour.

    Thecheesecake filling couldnt be easier to make, put all the ingredients in the food processorand blitz until smooth. The cheesecake batter was so thick, yet when stealing a spoonful, it was

    so light and creamy.

    Do you remember when you were a little kid and you were waiting patiently for your Mom toask, Who wants to lick the spoon? Making thesecheesecake brownies took me right back to

    that moment. Adding the Baileys kicked these brownies up a notch and I couldnt help but do

    quite a bit of taste testing. My daughter, Liana, was quick to point out there wouldnt be enough

    batter if I didnt stop stealing a taste here and there (lock me up, I just couldnt resist!).

    The one thing I regret when making these small little packages of pure indulgence, answering the

    phone in the last few minutes of baking. Those last few minutes in the brownie baking cycle are

    so critical, you dont want that cake tester inserted in the centre to come out clean and rob your

    brownies from ooey gooey goodness.

    Although I faced a couple of challenges when making these incredibleBaileys CheesecakeSwirl Chocolate Brownies nothing can replace the experience of taking the first bite into creamy

    chocolate heaven.
