Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x9-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper.
  • Mix the melted butter and granulated sugar in a mixing bowl until well combined. Then, add the eggs and vanilla extract, stirring until everything is smooth.
  • Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Gently mix until just combined.
  • Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 15-18 minutes.
  • Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then add the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
  • Spread the cheesecake filling over the cooled brownie layer evenly.
  • Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes.
  • Cool the brownie cheesecake at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Lift the brownie cheesecake out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into small squares.
  • Drizzle with caramel sauce and sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
  • Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature. Avoid overmixing the brownie batter to maintain a tender texture.
