The topping is 2 packages of Ben and Jerry’s Half Baked Cookie Dough bites.

You can find these on Walmart.com but they are in-store purchase/order for pickup only. You can also find them on Target.

First you will want to preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.

For the brownie layer, you will want to use a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate on 30-second increments until melted.

Mix until combined and set aside to cool slightly. In another bowl, combine the sugar, egg, and vanilla. Mix the sugar mixture into the chocolate mixture. Now you will mix in the flour and salt until combined. Divide this mixture evenly into the cupcake liners.

Peanut Butter Cheesecake directions are as follows.

Using a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until combined and smooth. (remember to use softened cream cheese otherwise you will have a lumpy mix). Beat in the eggs one at a time until combined. Now beat in the peanut butter and vanilla until combined and smooth.

Divide the cheesecake batter evenly into the cupcake liners. Put in the oven and back for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden. Remove from your oven and allow them to cool completely. Place in the fridge overnight. Before serving top with the Ben and Jerry’s half baked cookie dough bites. Yum!!
