Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 4 large Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 16 ounces Cream cheese
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Caramel sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together, stirring frequently, until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

Whisk in 1 cup of granulated sugar into the melted chocolate mixture. Add 2 eggs, one at a time, stirring until fully incorporated. Mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet chocolate mixture until just combined.

Step 5

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer. Bake for 15 minutes or until the edges begin to set. Remove and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 6

While the brownie base cools, prepare the cheesecake filling. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and mix until combined.

Step 7

Add the remaining 2 eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and heavy cream until smooth.

Step 8

Pour the cheesecake filling over the slightly cooled brownie base. Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles and smooth out the surface.

Step 9

Bake the cheesecake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is slightly jiggly but the edges are set. Turn off the oven, leave the door slightly open, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.

Step 10

Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight) to fully set.

Step 11

Before serving, pour caramel sauce over the top of the cheesecake and spread evenly. Optionally, drizzle additional caramel and sprinkle with sea salt or chocolate shavings for garnish.

Step 12

Remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve chilled.
