Cheesecake Brownies recipe

Cheesecake Brownies

Brownie batter ingredients
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces
3 oz unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup all-purpose flour

Cheesecake batter ingredients
12 oz cream cheese, well softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg plus 2 egg whites

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Ingredients
Brownie batter: Position oven rack in the middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan. Heat butter and chocolate in a heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, whisking occasionally, until just melted. Remove from heat and whisk in the sugar, eggs, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Mix in the flour until just incorporated and spread in baking pan.

Cheesecake batter: Whisk together all of the cheesecake batter ingredients in a small bowl until smooth. Dollop over brownie batter, then swirl in with a knife or spatula. I found it hard to swirl the batter, but instead I used a knife to fold chunks of brownie batter up over the cheesecake, which proved to be a really great idea, and looked beautfiul too!

Finally, sprinkle the chocolate chips over the cheesecake/brownie batter.Bake until edges are slightly puffed and center is just set, about 35 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
