REESE'S CHEESECAKE BARS

These were amazing! So, so tasty. Definitely for the peanut butter lover. I was eating the mixture while making them. I used baking paper for ease of removal and cutting, but they will definitely cut cleaner if they are chilled enough, but without the chocolate being too hard.

Made these with my many batches of Christmas cookies. The recipe looked so easy, and yes it was! We are huge Reese's junkies and they tasted just like them! Everyone really enjoyed them and will definitely make again.

This is by far the best bars I've ever had/made! They actually do taste just like a Reese's cup! The recipe is easy to follow and it's quick and simple. This will be an office party dessert favor.

I used layer of cheesecake and 3 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract, but it's still a delicious treat regardless. I'll be packing one of these in my daughter's lunch box as a treat. Hubby eaten 3 so far, but I'm sure he'll be share to his friend because he always share to everyone. We love it! I'll make this when christmas come and my family will loved it.
