And if you want to make this a pure no bake recipe, well buy a pre-made brownie from the store and cut into the shape of the pan, easy, simple and you don’t have to use your oven.
Inspired by my favorite dessert of all time Fudge Brownie No Bake Cheesecake, I made an adjustment to that recipe to make this perfect for Valentine’s Day this week. My family loves red velvet anything, so I thought this would be a great way to celebrate.
