Indulge in this decadent yet refreshing dessert that has layers of ooey gooey brownie cheesecake
topped with a fresh strawberry gelée.
Every once in a while I make a dessert that I have a hard time sharing, and this was one of them. After my first bite, I just knew I couldn’t give it away. I was in love and wanted it all for myself.
I make a lot of desserts and usually enjoy a small sampling before giving them away. It’s not that I don’t love eating what I make, I do, but there would be no room for me to eat real food if I consumed every sweet treat that came out of my kitchen. It’s just too much.
Plus, I really do enjoy sharing. It brings me great joy to see the smile on the face of someone indulging in one of my homemade treats.
So, when I become protective of a dessert, you know it’s good, really good.
I am a big fan of the combination of chocolate and strawberries, and when you throw some cheesecake mousse into the mix, it’s over the top.
This dessert is topped with a strawberry gelée, which tastes a bit like strawberry preserves, but has a firmer texture, so that it doesn’t just run off the dessert. It’s like a really fresh and somewhat soft version of Jell-O.
If you can find really ripe strawberries, you can make the dessert using them, otherwise, use frozen ones. That way you can make this any time of year.

You give such a good description of this beautiful dessert that I can see why you’d want to keep it for yourself. I love strawberries and get really happy when I see them paired with chocolate. It seems that raspberries usually get that gig..and I don’t care for them. So yay for some Brownie Cheescake Strawberry Gelee! 🙂
Thanks, Karen. I can’t wait to make this again and actually share it with family and friends. I love raspberries too, but agree with you that strawberries are just meant to be paired with chocolate.
