I would like to make this recipe but noticed it calls for an 8 oz brownie mix. I did see a 10 oz. package at the store....by reading others comments it seems like they are using a large box of brownie mix. Seems like that would be way too much.

Excellent dessert that's easy to make. If I need a big batch for a crowd I use a 9x13 pan and use a bigger box of brownie mix, then double the filling. Once it's cool, I just cut into bars for easy finger food.

I made this for my husband's birthday. It was a big hit he loved it and so did my son. I followed the recipe as written.

Awesome cheesecake and so easy to make! one of the first times i made cheesecake. the brownie layer is pretty thick and in some areas bigger than the cheesecake. Maybe because i used chocolate chunk brownie mix. anyways i never like my cheesecakes to have a very thin crust so this is perfect!

I love this cheesecake. I've made it this way but also as a double recipe for everything but the crust with fresh raspberries on top. It's a beautiful cheesecake and I rarely have to worry about left overs!
