JUNIOR'S BROWNIE SWIRL CHEESECAKE
That perfect balance of chocolate and cheesecake, what more can you ask for! I will tell you I was a bit concerned after making the brownies for the recipe. The 8x8 pan of brownies took longer to bake, by like 15 minutes. When we tasted the brownies as we cut and used the following day, they weren't "the best brownies I had ever had". HOWEVER... they are the perfect brownie for this recipe. They totally work for their intended purpose here.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously butter the bottom and sides if a 9-inch springform pan and an 8 inch square baking pan. Line the baking pan (but not the springform pan) with parchment paper, leaving 1 inch overhang on the sides. Wrap the outside of the springform pan with aluminum foil, covering the bottom and extending all the way up the sides.
- To make the brownies, melt the chocolate with the butter and let cool. In a small bowl, combine the flour and salt. In a large bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer on high until light yellow and thick, about 3 minutes. With the mixer still running, gradually add the sugar, then the chocolate mixture and the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and blend in the flour mixture just until it disappears.
- Spread 2 cups of the batter in the springform pan to make the crust and the rest in the baking pan. Bake just until set around the sides, about 10 minutes for the crust and 25 minutes for the baking pan. (The centers will be slightly soft.) Let cool on wire rack for 1 hour. Leave the brownie crust in the springform pan. Life the brownies out of the square pan onto a plate, using the paper hanging over the sides as handles. Cover both the crust and the square of brownies with plastic wrap and refridgerate overnight.
- Cut the square of brownies with a serrated knife into 1 inch squares and set aside. Put one package of the cream cheese, 1/3 cup of sugar, and the cornstarch in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on low until creamy, about 3 minutes, scraping down the bowl several times. Blend in the remaining cream cheese, one package at a time, beating well after adding each one. Beat in 2/3 cup of the cream just until completely blended. Don't overmix. Transfer 1 cup of the batter to a small bowl and set aside for the chocolate swirls.
- Cover the chocolate brownie crust in the pan with small brownie bites (12 to 16), covering as much of the crust as possible. Use only one layer of brownie bites in order to leave plenty of room for the cheesecake batter. (Eat the rest of the brownies!) Gently spoon the white batter over the brownie bites.
- Now make the chocolate swirls. Melt the chocolate and stir into the reserved white batter until completely blended. Using a teaspoon, drop the chocolate batter on top of the white batter, pushing it down slightly as you go. Usinga thin, pointed knife, cut through the batter a few times in a swirling "figure 8" design, just until chocolate swirls appear.
- Place the cake in alarge shallow pan containing hot water that comes to about 1 inch up the sides of the springform. Bake until the edges are light golden brown and the top of the cake has golden and dark chocolate swirls, about 75 minutes. Remove the cake from the water bath, transfer to a wire rack and let cool 2 hours. DO NOT move it. Leave the cake in the pan, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and refridgerate until completely cold, at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
- To serve, release and remove the sides of the springform, leaving the cake on the bottom of the pan. Place on a cake plate. Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of cream in a 1 inch border around the top of the cake. Sprinkle the nuts over the cream, pressing the nuts down gently, making a 1 inch border around the top outside edge. refridgerate until ready to serve. Slice with sharp, straight edged knife, NOT a serrated one. Cover any leftover cake and refridgerate.
BROWNIE CHEESECAKE SWIRL
Loved the crunchy bottom crust of the brownies. We chose to go for spring colors - wouldn't that look great on your Easter table? The color combinations are endless - Christmas, Halloween, the big game with team colors... just imagine! We did wrap the springform pan in aluminum foil and would recommend you do this too ... even...

Steps:
- 1. One Bowl Brownies (crust/ bottom layer): Pre-heat oven to 350F. Grease springform pan.
- 2. Microwave (or double boil) chocolate and butter in large bowl for 2 minutes or until butter is melted. Remove from heat. Stir chocolate and butter until chocolate is melted (off heat).
- 3. Stir sugar into the chocolate mix, until well blended. Mix in eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour until well blended. Pour into pan and bake 30- 35 minutes. Let brownie crust cool in pan.
- 4. NOTE: If you want a thinner layer of brownie crust, you may want to pour only half into the springform pan and decrease the time until it is chewy - do not overcook! Leftover mix can be used to make a small batch of brownies or divide the mix to make two brownie cheesecakes using smaller springform pans.
- 5. Cheesecake Filling: Change the oven temp to 325F.
- 6. Beat the cream cheese, on medium speed, with a hand-held mixer until smooth. Add 1 1/4 cups sugar and beat just until light and fluffy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
- 7. Slowly beat in 3/4 cup sour cream, then eggs, 1 tablespoon vanilla and lemon zest (optional). Do not overwhip.
- 8. Divide your cheesecake filling into your desired coloring amounts (I divided mine into 3 - one I left alone, one I colored pink, and one I colored purple). Color your filling with gels.
- 9. Spoon colored filling onto brownie crust. There is no rhyme or reason. Just build up the filling in almost a layer approach (spoon out a blob of one color onto another color). This creates a varied and artistic look.
- 10. Bring a medium saucepan or kettle of water to a boil. Gently place a roasting pan (for water bath) in the oven (don't pull the rack out of the oven). Pour in enough hot water to come about halfway up the side of the springform pan. (You may want to put foil on the outside of your springform pan before you pour the cheesecake filling into it).
- 11. Bake the cheesecake for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The outside of the cake will set but the center will still be loose (you may have to adjust the temp depending on your altitude or oven). Remove cheesecake from the roasting pan to a rack. Run a knife around the edges and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Bring cheesecake to room temperature 30 minutes before serving. Remove the springform ring. Dip a knife in warm water, wipe dry before slicing each piece.

This is one of our families FAVORITE dessert, especially our oldest son. This is the dessert he requests for me to make every year for his birthday. It is the best of both worlds...brownies and cheesecakes:) This recipe won't disappoint. You can make and eat once it has cooled, but if you can wait for it to cool and set...
