Rich and delicious Cheesecake Bars don’t require a special pan to make. Perfect for parties!
Cheesecake is such a delicious dessert. I love that it can be paired with so many things, from fruit, to chocolate or caramel syrup, to candy bars or cookies.
Cheesecake is also one of those desserts that a lot of people think are really hard to make, but it really isn’t difficult.
The hardest thing about cheesecake is that it usually requires a spring form pan. If you don’t want to buy a special pan just for making cheesecake once a year, Cheesecake Bars are a great alternative.
Cheesecake Bars are also fabulous for a crowd, since one pan makes 15-18 servings.
