Butterscotch Cheesecake Bars

January 31, 2018

Ahhh cheesecake, my all-time favourite dessert! Add some butterscotch flavour and you have pure dessert heaven.

This cheesecake has a rich butterscotch base, smooth, creamy cheesecake filling and topped with some butterscotch crunch. It’s super rich so one piece is more than enough. Unless, of course, your sweet tooth demands more!

I may have eaten most of it myself. Guilty! I just couldn’t resist knowing it was in the fridge taunting me. Serve for dessert or a midday snack with some coffee or tea.
