Cream Cheese Chocolate Squares image

This is a favorite in my family. I made it for the holiday christmas party at work and everyone wanted the recipe. It is the best of cheese cake and chocolate in one.

Time 1h30m

Yield 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup margarine
6 ounces bakers semisweet chocolate
1 cup coconut (optional)
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup chopped unsalted peanuts (optional)
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • microwave 3/4 cup of margarine and 2 oz. chocolate squares until melted. Stir together.
  • Stir in graham cracker crumbs, coconut and peanuts (I don't use the coconut because my husband doesn't like it). Press mixture onto bottom of 13x9 inch backing pan. Chill 30 minutes.
  • Mix cream cheese, sugar, vanilla until well blended. Spread over graham cracker crust. Chill 30 minutes.
  • Microwave reamaining margarine and chocolate squares until melted. Mix well, and then spread over the cream cheese layer. Chill until chocolate is hardened.
  • cut into squares and serve. Hint: Warm a knife with warm water to cut without cracking the chocolate topping.
  • The review reminded me that I do double my chocolate topping. It just makes it that much better!

I'm really disappointed with this recipe. I wasted my time and ingredients.

These squares were a complete disaster! I followed the recipe exactly and they still turned out terrible.

I would not recommend this recipe. The squares were dry and crumbly.

Overall, I thought these squares were just okay. They weren't as good as I was hoping they would be.

These squares are a bit dense for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little bit of baking powder next time to make them lighter.

I had a hard time finding cream cheese that wasn't whipped. I ended up having to whip it myself, which added extra time to the recipe.

These squares are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I love that these squares can be made ahead of time. It's so convenient to have a sweet treat on hand when I'm short on time.

These squares are a great way to use up leftover cream cheese.

The only downside to these squares is that they're so addictive! I can't stop eating them.

I'm not a big fan of cream cheese, but these squares were surprisingly good. The chocolate really balances out the tanginess of the cream cheese.

These cream cheese chocolate squares are a delightful treat! The combination of the tangy cream cheese and the rich chocolate is simply irresistible.
