Churros Cheesecake Bars
Churros Cheesecake Bars! That's right. Churros. Cheesecake. Bars. Add these to your Cinco de Mayo menu & you will not regret it!
As a kid going to Taco Bell & getting the cinnamon twists was always a treat. Just like getting crispy, fresh churros at Six Flags or whenever the parking lot carnival came to town. You know the one!
My Churros Cheesecake Bars were giving all those vibes! And I may or may not have eaten half a dozen for lunch. But I'm grown so I can do what I want. Mind y'all business! #LetsVibe
