Samoa Cheesecake With Fudge Drizzle Recipe is Creamy, Dreamy + So Delicious
This indulgent twist on the Girl Scout classic will delight with every luscious bite
When I was selling Girl Scout cookies as a kid, Samoas were my favorites. I would always buy a few boxes for myself and then hide them in my room so my brother wouldn’t eat them all. I mean, can you blame me? The cookies are the perfect balance of sweet caramel, nutty coconut and rich chocolate. They’re everything you could possibly want in a sweet treat! So no wonder then that Samoas inspired a very special dessert created by our test kitchen — this Samoa cheesecake with fudge drizzle recipe. It’s creamy, crunchy and decadently delicious. And it perfectly combines the irresistible flavors in my favorite cookie. You’ve got to give it a try!
This dessert is easy, too. The crust is just two ingredients. And the creamy cheesecake comes together in a snap. Make it for your friends and family and see for yourself. Then leave us a comment below.
