Cheesecake Brownies Recipe

picture of a cheesecake brownie made using this cheesecake-brownies recipe 1 cup of oil

1 cup of natural cocoa powder

2 cups of sugar

4 large eggs

1 cup of flour

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare your pan. Grease or spray an 8" x 8" or 9" x 9" pan*.

Into a large bowl pour the oil, cocoa, sugar, eggs, flour, salt and baking powder. Mix together very well. Make sure to thoroughly scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.

Pour the brownie batter into the pan, spread evenly. Top with the cheesecake filling (recipe below). Gently spread the cream cheese topping over the brownie batter.

OR make marble brownies. Place dollops of cheesecake batter onto the brownie batter. With a knife or your finger (my personal favorite) swirl the cream cheese into the brownie.

Bake for approximately 1 hour, if you use the the 8-inch pan.

Bake for about 45 minutes, if you chose the 9-inch pan.

Remember ovens vary. Start testing about five minutes before time is up.

Test the cheesecake brownies for doneness by inserting a knife into the center. The knife will come out nearly clean when brownies are ready. If knife comes out gooey, bake five or ten minutes longer and then retest.

Let cool. Then refrigerate for several hours before serving. Tastes best and serves easier when cold. Patience! They're worth the wait.

*I used the 8" x 8" pan. Makes for a nice thick brownie. But it takes longer to bake and the cream cheese browns. The cheesecake still tasted great.

Use the 9" x 9" pan for a slightly thinner brownie with a thinner layer of cheesecake.
