I've tried this recipe several times and I can never get it right. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my brownies didn't turn out as expected. The cheesecake filling was too runny and the brownies were too dry.

I'm not a huge fan of cheesecake, but I loved these brownies. The cheesecake filling is subtle and doesn't overpower the chocolate.

I was skeptical about how these would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised. They're gooey, chocolatey, and have the perfect amount of cheesecake filling.
