Cranberry Cheesecake Bars Recipe
We love cheesecake in our house, so when our son came for a visit last weekend, I made a batch of these Cranberry Cheesecake Bars. Any recipe that has chocolate chips as one of its ingredients is always a big hit. I managed to get a few pictures of them before they were devoured.
