BoardWalk Resort Bakery
Along with our world-famous theme parks, water parks, golf courses and shopping at Walt Disney World Resort, add Disney’s BoardWalk to the list of don’t-miss adventures. As guests walk along the lively waterfront promenade, they can stroll into the shops and enjoy the unusual vendors, or dine at one of three restaurants or experience entertainment like the up-to-the-minute sports action at the ESPN Club or the hip sounds at Atlantic Dance.
One of the popular stops from breakfast to evening is the BoardWalk Bakery, for treats like this decadent Brownie Cheesecake. This is the perfect dessert for when you can’t decide between smooth, rich cheesecake and decadent chocolate.
Give yourself plenty of time to make this sweet ending – you have to bake the brownies first, then top with cheesecake and bake again. Then give it time to cool and chill for at least an hour – but the result is worth the wait.
