Santa Fe Valentine's Day Cheesecake Brownies
These homemade Valentine's Day treats are the sweetest way to say "I love you" to everyone special in your life. Instead of just plain cheesecake and brownies, I took it a step further and made them exceptional for a Santa Fe Valentine's Day.

16 oz cream cheese
1/3 c cocoa powder
1 tsp ancho chile
1/3 c red wine

1 1/3 c heavy cream
1/3 c sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Present a large dollop (or form with a heart shaped cookie cutter) of cheesecake on top of brownie square and serve with your choice of fruit, caramel, or more chocolate. You can also use white chocolate instead of cocoa powder like I did below.
