Carrot Cheesecake Bars are a delightful blend of two beloved desserts: moist carrot cake and rich, creamy cheesecake.

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.
