Categories     dessert

Time 2h5m

Yield 24 mini brownies

Number Of Ingredients 20

Nonstick cooking spray
6 tablespoons butter
4 1/2 ounces bittersweet baking chocolate discs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
7 tablespoons lightly packed dark brown sugar
2 large eggs plus 1 large egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chopped toasted walnuts, optional
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
Pinch salt
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
3 cups confectioners' sugar, or more as desired
2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Milk, optional

Steps:

  • Candies or cookies for decorating, such as pirouette cookies, white, pink or chocolate curls, dragees, edible glitter, chocolate cigars or wafer cookies
  • For the brownies: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 24-cup mini-muffin pan very lightly with nonstick cooking spray and line the bottoms with small rounds of parchment.
  • In a double boiler, melt the butter and the chocolate together, stirring often to avoid scorching. Remove from the heat once everything is melted and combined.
  • In a big bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs and egg yolk. Whisk in the salt and vanilla.
  • Slowly add the chocolate mixture to the egg mixture to temper it and whisk just to combine.
  • Gradually stir in the flour and mix until everything is combined and smooth. Stir in the walnuts if using. Set aside.
  • For the cheesecake topping: With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese with the granulated sugar and salt until smooth, then add the sour cream, vanilla and egg, and beat together just until incorporated. Transfer the cheesecake topping to a pastry bag or resealable plastic bag.
  • Use a small ice cream scoop to add the brownie batter to the muffin pan (it should come halfway up the sides). Snip the tip off the pastry bag and pipe some cheesecake topping on top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan.
  • For the buttercream frosting: Sift the confectioners' sugar into a medium bowl. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high until smooth and light, about 1 minute. Add all but 1/4 cup of the confectioners' sugar and mix on low just to combine. Add the vanilla and increase the speed to high, then beat until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. (Add more confectioners' sugar or a bit of milk depending on how stiff or loose you want the frosting.)
  • Frost the brownie bites with buttercream frosting, and decorate as desired with candy or cookies.

NO-BAKE BROWNIE CHEESECAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



No-Bake Brownie Cheesecake Recipe by Tasty image

This cheesecake could not be easier - you don't even have to turn on your oven, making it perfect for those hot summer nights. It all starts with a box of brownie mix that gets folded into whipped cream cheese, a little sour cream, and some sugar. If you're worried about consuming raw flour, don't fret! We heat the brownie mix to kill any harmful bacteria and make it safe to eat.

Categories     Desserts

Time 20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

24 chocolate sandwich cookies, plus 8, halved, divided
½ stick unsalted butter, melted
1 box brownie mix
24 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
¼ cup heavy cream, room temperature
½ cup sour cream, room temperature
whipped cream, for garnish

Steps:

  • Add 24 chocolate sandwich cookies to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until broken down into fine crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl and add the melted butter. Stir until well combined and the consistency resembles wet sand.
  • Transfer the crust mixture to a 9-inch springform pan and firmly pat down in an even layer.
  • Add the brownie mix to a large, heat-proof bowl. Microwave for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). This will help kill any harmful bacteria. Set aside.
  • Add the cream cheese to a separate large bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, heavy cream, and sour cream and beat until the filling is smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Gradually add the brownie mix and beat on low speed until fully incorporated and smooth, 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or ideally overnight, until the filling is set.
  • Remove the cheesecake from the fridge, unwrap, and release the springform. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with whipped cream and the 8 halved chocolate sandwich cookies.
  • Slice and serve. Leftover cheesecake will keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is a good choice.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense brownie.
  • For a fudgy brownie, bake it for a shorter amount of time. For a cakier brownie, bake it for a longer amount of time.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9x13 inch baking pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan well.
  • You can also use a store-bought brownie mix to make this recipe. Just follow the instructions on the box and then top it with the cheesecake filling.

Conclusion:

This brownie with a cheesecake topping is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its rich chocolate flavor and creamy cheesecake topping, this brownie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
