Reviews
I made this pie today, its very tasty, very rich, however you must bake it a lot longer than recipe says. I baked the brownie layer 30 minutes and the cheesecake layer about 45. Just would not get done. This however worked and everything cooked up fine. Just wanted to let others know.
I made this last night following the recipe exactly. For taste, I give it five stars. For baking time ... terrible. The directions were clear and easy to follow and I made sure I had everything in place. My problem came down to the baking time. I baked the brownie and everything was fine. I added the cheeesecake layer and that was my problem. The recipe says bake 18 to 20 minutes. I set my timer for 18 minutes and checked. The middle was still raw so I kept baking ... and kept baking. I lost track of how many times I put it back in the oven, but I know it was at least 15 extra minutes and the middle was still a little soft. I finally took it out fearing that the brownie layers would be cardboard. I tested it this morning and found good news/bad news. The good news was that the brownie was not overcooked. The bad news is that the cheesecake layer and the brownie layer were both a little under done. So ... I would make this again, but knowing that the last bake requires a much longer time for me. I have a new oven and I've never had a problem with other items I have baked, but just be prepared to bake for longer if the middle isn't set. It will all be ok.
Excellent! I didn’t use the snickers only because I don’t like that many textures.. it’s very rich, a small slice will satisfy your cheesecake and craving for a brownie as well!
This was very good but very rich and sweet. I made several desserts for a party and put small pieces of them all on a table. It was the first dessert gone.
Good, but very rich. Make sure it is very cold, as the colder it gets, the better it is.
The combination of the crust, cream cheese and the topping binds into a delicious treat that is one of a kind
This was a huge hit !
Delicious!! This pie has all my favorite food staples brownie's and snickers. I had a great time making and serving what was left when I finished test tasting it, which was about 4 slices cut really thin, just kidding, there was some restraint on my part. I did change the topping however from the glaze to Reddi-Wip. It was a winner!!!! I do want to say that if anyone in your family is allergic to peanuts then switch the Snickers to Milky Way, same great taste!
Super easy to make. Sure to satisfy any chocolate lovers craving. Everyone loved this. I will definitely make again.
Sweet decadence; don't even consider the calorie count. Just enjoy. I had it with my breakfast coffee...Good Morning!!!!!!!!1
