Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan to prevent sticking.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder in a separate bowl.
- Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients gradually and stir until just combined.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
- Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and optional flour, then beat until smooth.
- Carefully pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie layer.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes until the cheesecake is set, with the center slightly jiggly.
- Cool the cheesecake in the oven with the door ajar for about 1 hour.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to let it set.
- Remove the sides of the springform pan once chilled and slice to serve.
