Time 55m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
¼ cup butter
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup white sugar
2 eggs
⅔ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan.
  • Combine cream cheese with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 egg in a mixing bowl; beat until smooth. Stir 1 cup chocolate chips into the cream cheese mixture. Set aside.
  • Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Turn the heat off, and set a heatproof mixing bowl over the water. In the mixing bowl, combine butter with the remaining cup of chocolate chips; stir until just melted and blended together. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and 2 eggs, then sift together flour, baking powder, and salt; stir into chocolate until evenly blended.

Top with remaining chocolate mixture (this doesn't need to completely cover the cream cheese layer). Using a knife, swirl the top chocolate layer into the cream cheese to make a marble pattern.

  • Bake 15 minutes or until top is shiny and center is ALMOST set. At this point it is only partially done.
  • Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until well blended.

  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed after each egg to mix well.
  • Pour over partially cooked brownie batter in pan. (Filling will come almost to the top.).
  • Bake 40 minutes or until center of cheesecake part is almost set.
  • Run knife/spatula around edge to loosen cake.
  • After cooling, refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.

This recipe was given to me by a friend several years ago. We enjoy the brownie, cheesecake and cherry combo very much. I have doubled the cheesecake layer (and baked longer) and served as dessert. Leftovers should be stored in the refrigerator. However, flavor is best at room temperature. Cook time includes chill time.
