Cream Cheese Brownies

unsalted butter

chocolate chips

cocoa powder

sugar

brown sugar (light

eggs egg

vanilla extract

salt

all-purpose flour

cream cheese (softened to room temperature)

Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 7×11 pan with baking spray.

Combine butter and chocolate chips in a large, microwave-safe bowl.

Microwave for 30 seconds.  Stir well and microwave again for another 15 seconds and then stir well again.  Repeat in 15 second intervals until chocolate and butter are completely melted and well-combined.

Add cocoa powder and stir well.

Add sugars, stir until completely combined.

Add eggs and then egg yolk, one at a time, stirring well after each addition.

Add vanilla extract and salt and stir to combine.

Add flour and stir until completely combined.

Reserve ¼ cup of the batter and spread the rest of the batter evenly into prepared pan.  Prepare your cheesecake topping.

Combine cream cheese and sugar in a medium-sized bowl.  Use an electric mixer to beat until creamy.

Stir in egg and vanilla extract.  Stir until well-combined.

Pour cheesecake over prepared brownie batter.  Take your reserved ¼ cup brownie batter (if it has become stiff just stir it with a spoon) and drop/drizzle over cheesecake.

Use a knife to swirl brownie batter and cheesecake together.

Bake on 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until center is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few fudgy crumbs.

Allow to cool COMPLETELY before cutting and serving.

Cheesecake

Why choose between cheesecake and brownies when you can have BOTH? This cheesecake brownies recipe is fudgy, decadent, and super easy to make!

The BEST Cheesecake Brownies

cream cheese, softened

egg, room temperature

butter

eggs

oz bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped

all purpose flour

Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 9 x 9 pan with parchment paper on all sides. Set aside.

Make the cheesecake layer first. In a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment beat all the cheesecake ingredients together until combined, about 2 minutes. Do not over beat. Set aside.

Now make the brownie layer. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Remove from microwave, stir in sugar. Microwave the mixture for 30 more seconds. Stir again and melt for 60 seconds more. You want the sugar and butter to bubble up slightly, but not burn. This amount of time should do the trick.

Remove mixture from the microwave and stir the bittersweet chocolate into the hot mixture to melt it completely. If the chocolate doesn&#8217;t melt completely,  put it in the microwave for another 15 seconds.

Add eggs and egg yolk and the vanilla extract, beating until combined. Add the flour, cocoa powder and salt and mix until combined.

Remove a 1/2 cup of the brownie batter and place it in a separate bowl. Add two tablespoons of water to the 1/2 cup of batter and whisk together to thin it out. This will create the brownie swirl on top.

Pour the remaining brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it into an even layer. Pour the cheesecake batter over the brownie layer. Drop the remaining thinned out brownie batter onto the cheesecake and use a knife to create a few big swirls. Do not over swirl. You want big separate swirls of cheesecake and brownie.

Bake for 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of the brownies comes out mostly clean. Allow to cool completely and place in the fridge for an hour for the cheesecake to set. When ready to serve, cut into 9 large squares or 16 smaller brownies!

Omggg! I never write comments but this deserves it 👏 I'll take a picture next batch! These are THE best cheesecake brownies I've ever had - EVER! You will overindulge 😩

Easy Homemade Gluten-Free Cheesecake Brownies

cheese cheese

white sugar

butter (2 sticks)

tsp salt

cocoa

all-purpose gluten-free flour (or regular flour)

walnuts

In a large bowl, blend cream cheese, sugar and eggs until smooth.

Make the cream cheese filling:

In a separate large bowl, blend butter, sugar, eggs, and salt using an electric mixer.

Add cocoa and nuts, if using, and stir in by hand until blended.

Add flour and mix until combined and a batter forms.

Pour the brownie batter into a baking pan greased or lined with parchment paper. Leave a little extra brownie batter to dollop on top of the cream cheese filling.

Pour the cream cheese filling over the brownie batter and smooth out so the batter is completely covered.

Thin the extra brownie batter with a tiny bit of water and use a spoon to dollop over the cheesecake filling. Use a fork or toothpick to swirl the batter into the cheesecake layer.

Bake for 35-40 minutes at 350F, until batter is set and a toothpick comes out clean from the middle of the pan.

Cool and store in an airtight container for up to two weeks. These brownies keep well at room temperature, in the fridge or in the freezer.

Frosting or decorating icing to “glue” eyeballs

Preheat oven to 350º F (180º C). Line a 13 by 9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some to hang over edges of the pan for easing removal of baked brownies. Set aside

Whisk cocoa powder and boiling water together in large bowl until smooth. Add chocolate chips and whisk until chocolate is melted. Whisk in melted butter and oil. (Mixture may look curdled.) Add eggs, yolks, and vanilla and continue to whisk until smooth and well combined. Whisk in sugar until fully incorporated. Add flour and salt and mix with rubber spatula until combined

Scrape batter into prepared pan, reserving ¼ cup of the batter to swirl on top with the cream cheese mixture. Set aside while you prepare the cream cheese mixture.

Combine cream cheese and sugar in a medium-sized bowl. Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat until creamy. Stir in egg and vanilla extract. Stir until well-combined. Add 5-10 drops orange gel food coloring and mix until evenly combined.

Dollop the cream cheese mixture over prepared brownie batter then dollop reserved brownies batter to fill in some of the spaces next to the cream cheese dollops. Use a knife to swirl the brownie and cream cheese mixture together, being careful not to swirl too much, otherwise you’ll lose the beautiful swirl pattern

Bake at 350°F for 25 minutes or until center is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few fudgy crumbs

Using parchment paper overhang, lift brownies from the pan. Return brownies to the wire rack and let cool completely, about 1 hour

Optional: Decorate brownies with candy eyeballs by sprinkling them on top of the brownies or by “gluing” them to the brownies using a small amount of frosting or decorating icing dabbed on the back, then press gently onto the brownies. Sprinkle with festive Halloween sprinkles

Cut into 2-inch squares and serve
