Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake Brownies

I love cheesecake and I love brownies. And strawberries. Who can forget those! This dessert has them all, so you don't have to choose just one! Isn't that the best??? These Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake Brownies are the best of all dessert heavens and are frequently requested by family at dinners and parties! The layers are so delicious but so different at the same time. They compliment each other so well. You can always change the berries to your liking but I feel like strawberry worked best.
