Description

Ingredients

• ½ cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated white sugar
• ¼ cup cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vinegar
• 1 tablespoon liquid red food color
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• ¾ cup all purpose flour
• 8 oz cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 3 oz white chocolate, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 egg

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Line a 8 x 8 square pan with aluminium foil with overhanging edges. Spray the pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
• Melt butter using microwave or in a pan on medium heat. I always prefer the stove top method.
• Once the butter melts transfer it to a big bowl. Add sugar and mix.
• Then add vanilla extract, cocoa powder, salt, red food color and vinegar, mixing after each addition.
• Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition.
• Finally fold in the flour till just combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, reserving ¼ cup of batter for the swirl on top.
• Melt white chocolate in a microwave, stirring every 30 seconds or using a double-boiler method. Set aside.
• Whisk the cream cheese till smooth and creamy. Add in sugar, vanilla extract and egg and mix till combined.
• Add in the melted white chocolate and mix till combined.
• Spread the cream cheese layer on top of the brownie layer.
• Now take the ¼ cup brownie batter that we had reserved earlier and drop dollops of it on top of the cheesecake layer.
• Take a knife or toothpick and drag the mixture through the cheesecake layer to create swirls. Drag 2-3 times horizontally and vertically to create swirls.
• Bake at 350 F degrees for 30 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let the brownies cool down. Since theres cheesecake involved, I dont like to cut them right away.
• Place in the refrigerator for couple of hours and then cut into pieces.
