This recipe is low carb, keto-friendly, gluten free, sugar free, and a Trim Healthy Mama S Fuel.

I love brownies - they are probably one of my favorite desserts - EVER! And who doesn't like cheesecake? This recipe combines two of my favorite things for a stellar dessert!

This is another reader-requested recipe makeover. A reader sent me a link to a Facebook video for Snickers Cheesecake Cake. After viewing the video, I thought it was little over-the-top (though it did look amazing)!

Chocolate cake on the bottom, snickers cheesecake in the middle, and another chocolate cake on top. Covered with chocolate ganache and caramel sauce. It was decadent for sure!

However, I wasn’t sure that my readers would want to have to put that much work into a dessert (even if it would taste amazing)!

So I took the idea of a Snickers Brownie Cheesecake and combined some of the ideas from the video.

For the bottom layer we have a fudgy chocolate brownie. (Truly it is a chocolate cake recipe, but underneath the cheesecake layer it tastes more like a brownie.)

Then on top of the brownie is a caramel cheesecake layer. Top it all off with peanuts, chocolate, and more caramel sauce and you still have a decadent dessert, but without all the intermediate steps!

It is delicious - and was approved by every single member of my family AND all of my teenage dorm boys! (I always count it a success if it passes the taste test of my boys.)

Before Trim Healthy Mama, the Snickers candy bar was my favorite. I loved the crunch from the peanuts and all the caramel, chocolatey goodness!

Because I love those flavors so much, I have a couple of other Snickers-themed recipes on my blog!

Skinny Cashew Snickers Bars (you could also use peanuts in place of the cashews)

Low Carb Snickers Pie

Both of the recipes above have received a lot of positive reviews, so make sure you try them out (AFTER you try this recipe, of course)!

If you are not fond of the crunchy peanuts, feel free to leave them out completely. Or, if you would rather have a plain brownie cheesecake, simply omit the peanuts and caramel and chocolate sauces.

This would also be delicious plain (as in just brownie and cheesecake) with fresh strawberries on top!

Please do not be intimidated by the amount of steps for this recipe. It looks difficult at first, but it really is not hard. And sometimes good things take a bit of time, right?

And if plain chocolate cheesecake is your thing, then check out this delicious recipe for No Bake Chocolate Cheesecake!
