This is a pretty good jumping off recipe, however it needs to adjusted just a bit. The raspberry flavor just doesn't come through the chocolate and cheesecake. I would suggest making this in a deeper baking dish, use the whole can of pie filling and adding either raspberry flavoring or raspberry liqour to the filling to amp up the flavor. Next time I would also drizzle some raspberry jam that I ran through a sieve to remove seeds on top along with the chocolate. I did add mini chocolate chips to the cake mix layer and that was really good.

I've made these bars many times, even sold them at my schools bake sale and they were a total hit. Highly recommend this for people who don't like a super thick layer of cheesecake
