Carrot Cheesecake Bars are a delightful blend of two beloved desserts: moist carrot cake and rich, creamy cheesecake. These bars deliver the warmth and spice of classic carrot cake with the smooth decadence of cheesecake, all in one perfect bite. Whether you’re baking for a spring gathering, Easter, or just because you love something sweet and satisfying, this recipe is the perfect treat. The beautiful swirl on top adds a bakery-style touch, and every slice is irresistibly soft, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweet.
