Yes, you heard me right… Red velvet bars. Whoever thought that there was something more to red velvet than just cupcakes? These bars are just as portable and delectable as those cupcakes. The bottom layer is made of a thicker, brownie like consistency of red velvet while the top is a cheesecake layer. Red velvet cupcakes are normally topped with cream cheese frosting, and that combination is unbeatable, so why change it? This top layer is similar to that on top of cream cheese brownies… basically cheesecake, but no refrigeration required. We watched the premiere of Dexter at a friend’s house tonight (which was amazing, btw), and I baked these for the host because red velvet cupcakes are his favorite. His reaction? He was absolutely delighted and couldn’t stop eating them. This recipe is a keeper, that’s for sure.
