You can probably guess, in my house, we all love Frozen Cheesecake Brownies. It’s our family go-to dessert for just about any occasion, from birthdays to family get-togethers, if I cant think to make something else.
The original recipe of this brownie came from a friend of mine, which is great on its own, but I added a layer of cheesecake, so we end up with two layers of delicious fudgy brownies and an extra creamy cheesecake filling. You could top each portion with whipped cream and fresh summer strawberries, that have been tossed in sugar to make them extra sweet, to give a little bit of extra jazziness…
There’s so much to love about this recipe. The is fudgy and dense brownie base, with crispy edges, that make you go for one more piece every time. And the cheesecake layer couldn’t be simpler. Only a few ingredients are needed to make the most luscious layer that you have ever had.
How to Make Best Ever Frozen Cheesecake Brownies
Turn on your oven and preheat to 350F.
Prepare an 8 inch by 8 inch baking tray with lightly greased, baking paper and put to one side.
In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips over a saucepan with hot water on low heat, stirring frequently, until melted. You can also use your microwave to do this in 30-second bursts. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a separate large bowl, beat remaining sugar and eggs together until smooth and well-combined. Add vanilla and chocolate mixture, and mix gently in with a metal spoon, until well-combined. Stir in remaining flour and salt and again combined gently with the aid of a metal spoon.
Using a whisk and a clean bowl, beat together, the cream cheese and a 1/3 cup of sugar, until completely smooth. To this mix, beat in one egg and fold in 2 tablespoons flour using a metal spoon.
Spread three-quarters of the chocolate brownie mixture into your prepared pan.
Pour the cream cheese mixture over this chocolate brownie layer, and spread evenly.
Carefully now top the cream cheese layer with remaining brownie batter, and gently spread to completely cover the cream cheese mixture.
Transfer Frozen Cheesecake Brownies to the oven and between bake for 40 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick comes out with just fudgy crumbs. Be careful, not to overcook your brownie as it will be more like a cake.
