How to Make Creamy Cheesecake Brownies

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla.

Step 2

Mix in cocoa, flour, salt, and baking powder until smooth. This is your brownie batter.
In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar, egg, and vanilla. Mix until creamy and well blended.

Step 3

Pour most of the brownie batter into the prepared pan, saving a little for the top. Spread it evenly.
Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the brownie layer. Then drop spoonfuls of the remaining brownie batter on top.

Step 4

Use a butter knife or toothpick to gently swirl the two mixtures together. Don’t overmix – just swirl a few times.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is just set. Let cool completely before cutting into squares.

FAQ’S

Can I use boxed brownie mix instead of making it from scratch ?

Yes! You can use a brownie mix for the base and just add the cheesecake swirl on top. It’s a great shortcut.

Do I have to use unsalted butter ?

It’s best to use unsalted butter so you can control the salt in the recipe, but if you only have salted butter, just skip adding extra salt.

How can I tell if the brownies are done ?

The edges should look firm and the center should be just set — not jiggly.

Can I double the recipe ?

Yes, double the ingredients and use a 9×13 inch pan. Bake a little longer, about 40–45 minutes.
