Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter, granulated sugar, and cocoa powder until well blended.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cheesecake Assembly
- While the brownies are baking, beat together cream cheese and powdered sugar in another bowl until smooth.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Fold in chocolate chips and caramel sauce.
- Once the brownies are done, pour the cheesecake mixture over them and return to the oven.
- Bake for an additional 45-55 minutes until the cheesecake is set.
- Allow to cool completely before refrigerating for at least 4 hours.
- Drizzle with additional caramel sauce before serving.
Notes
For serving, slice into wedges and drizzle with more caramel sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days, or freeze wrapped tightly for up to two months. Tips: Ensure cream cheese is softened, avoid overmixing brownie batter, and consider adding sea salt on top of caramel sauce before serving.
