Ingredients

• 6 oz Unsweetened chocolate
• 0.75 cup Butter
• 2 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 tsp Vanilla extract
• 4 Eggs
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 packages (8 oz each) Cream cheese (softened)
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar (for cheesecake layer)
• 0.5 tsp Vanilla extract (for cheesecake layer)
• 1 Egg (for cheesecake layer)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

Melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter together in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Once melted, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Step 3

Stir 2 cups of granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.

Step 4

Add the 4 eggs to the chocolate mixture one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Step 5

Gradually stir in 1 cup of all-purpose flour until the batter is smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 6

Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan, saving about 1/2 cup of the batter for swirling on the top later.

Step 7

In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 8

Add 1 egg to the cream cheese mixture and beat until fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 9

Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the brownie batter in the pan, spreading it gently with a spatula to create an even layer.

Step 10

Drop spoonfuls of the reserved brownie batter onto the cheesecake layer. Using a knife or skewer, swirl the brownie batter into the cheesecake layer to create a marbled effect.

Step 11

Bake the Philadelphia Brownie Cheesecake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is just set.

Step 12

Remove the pan from the oven and allow the dessert to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight for best results.

Step 13

Cut into 16 squares and serve chilled. Enjoy your rich and creamy Philadelphia Brownie Cheesecake!
