Description

Indulge in these delicious creamy raspberry cheesecake brownies that combine a rich brownie layer with a smooth cheesecake layer and a delightful raspberry swirl.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam or preserves

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brownie Layer:

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking pan.

    Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract.

    Sift in the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix until combined.

    Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

  2. Prepare the Cheesecake Layer:

    In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.

    Add the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.

  3. Combine Layers and Add Raspberry Swirl:

    Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the brownie layer in the pan.

    Spoon the raspberry jam in small dollops over the cheesecake layer.

    Use a knife or skewer to swirl the raspberry jam into the cheesecake layer, creating a marbled effect.

  4. Bake:

    Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cheesecake layer is set and the edges are lightly golden.

    Allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

  • For a neat swirl pattern, do not over-swirl the raspberry jam; a few light swirls are enough.
  • Ensure the cream cheese is sufficiently softened for a smooth cheesecake layer.
  • These brownies can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
