I used to love those cookie cakes you could get at the mall.  A lot of that probably had to do with the frosting.  The frosting was especially sweet and always piled on extra thick.  Chocolate chips cookies covered in a thick layer of frosting is every kid’s dream.  I think another reason why I loved cookie cakes so much was simply because it went against the normal way of eating cookies.  I had only known chocolate chip cookies to be served as small, round, discs; and here they were in cake form.  It blew my mind.

Blondie Brownies made with lots of brown sugar, a hint of almond and tart cherry M & M candies!

Shortly thereafter, brownie cakes came on the seen and I was just as enthralled.  It’s funny to think how cookies and brownies served in pizza pans or skillets are pretty standard for our kids, but they were just a novelty when I was a kid.

Raspberry Amaretto Cheesecake Blondie

Since the family loved  my peanut butter skillet cookie , I thought I’d try my hand at a skillet blondie. And in place of that overly sweet frosting that the mall cookie stores use, I topped my blondie with a raspberry amaretto CHEESECAKE layer.

Blonde Brownies flavored with Biscoff spread and caramel filled Rolo candies!
The best brownies ever!

The blondie is brown sugar based and is studded with white chocolate chips.  The cheesecake layer is swirled with a generous helping of Robert Rothschild Raspberry Amaretto Preserves.  These preserves should be on everything you eat!  Delicate raspberries are combined with a hint of almond from Amaretto liqueur.  This sweet blend was the perfect compliment to my cheesecake, however, I can see adding this preserve to my savory dishes as well!

This skillet blondie is like three desserts in one; you have the brown sugar blondie, the creamy cheesecake and that sweet and tangy preserve.  This recipe is easy and so delicious, I suspect it will become one of your go-to recipes!
