Description
A rich brownie base meets a silky cheesecake layer and ribbons of sticky caramel in this showstopper dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1 package cream cheese (8 oz), softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- Prepare the brownie mix according to package instructions and pour the batter into the bottom of the prepared pan, spreading it into an even layer.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the sour cream, flour, and salt until fully combined.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture gently over the brownie layer.
- Drizzle 1 cup of caramel sauce over the cheesecake layer and swirl it with a knife or skewer to create a marbled effect.
- Bake for 45 to 50 minutes until the cheesecake is mostly set with a slight jiggle in the center.
- Turn off the oven and leave the door slightly ajar for 15 minutes to help prevent cracking.
- Cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing.
Notes
For neat slices, use a hot, clean knife and serve chilled. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
