Well, #Choctoberfest with Imperial Sugar is still going on this week!  Have you entered the giveaway yet?!  I know you want to win some chocolate.  😉

Well, I have been enjoying a lot of chocolate the past few weeks, gearing up for #Choctoberfest.  And I haven’t minded one bit.  Imperial Sugar has been sponsoring this event, and they were gracious enough to provide me with lots of sugar.  Thank you, Imperial Sugar!  🙂

So, my chocolate recipe for today is some Chocolate Crumble Cheesecake Bars.

So much to love about these sweet treats.  They have a chocolatey, crumbly crust and topping, and there is a layer of cheesecake in the middle.  Yum!

The crust and topping get some nice crunch from peanuts and crushed graham crackers.

The cheesecake filling is easy to make, and only requires 4 ingredients.

This dessert doesn’t take too long to make, and it bakes in about 25 minutes.  I say it is perfect for sharing with guests or taking to a potluck.

Chocolate Crumble Cheesecake Bars are a delicious dessert with lots of chocolate flavor and added crunch from peanuts and graham crackers

I just love desserts.  And chocolate.  And cheesecake.  No wonder I love these so much!
