Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 3 whole Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Cocoa powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.33 cup Granulated sugar for cheesecake layer
• 1 whole Large egg for cheesecake layer
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract for cheesecake layer

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan with gluten-free cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat together 1 cup granulated sugar and 2 large eggs until well combined. Add in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract and the melted chocolate mixture, stirring until smooth.

Step 4

Stir in the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt until just combined.

Step 5

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and 0.33 cup granulated sugar until smooth. Add in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and mix until creamy and well combined.

Step 7

Carefully spread the cheesecake mixture over the brownie batter in the pan, using a spatula to make an even layer.

Step 8

Use a knife to gently swirl the brownie batter and cheesecake topping together, creating a marbled effect.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden.

Step 10

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares and serving. For neater slices, refrigerate for at least an hour before cutting.

Step 11

Enjoy your gluten-free cheesecake brownies as a delightful dessert or indulgent snack.
