Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies

These Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies may be last minute, but they ROCK!

They’re super adorable, but everyone knows that layered foods are the best foods. I always struggle with when to post content before holidays, and realized that it’s really not too late until after Valentine’s Day. I mean, we all have grocery stores and InstaCart, don’t we? Plus there’s a nice weekend coming up. And even after Valentine’s Day, I say that heart everything is always in style. I wear all my heart socks in June and I eat my heart brownies whenever I want to eat heart brownies. Which is often. So let me know if you make these, or something like them:
