Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Base
- 1 box red velvet brownie mix (prepared according to package instructions)
Cheesecake Swirl
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Prepare Brownie Batter: Follow the instructions on the red velvet brownie mix box to prepare the batter. Pour the batter into a greased baking dish, spreading evenly.
- Make Cheesecake Swirl: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Add the egg and mix until fully combined.
- Add Cheesecake Swirl to Brownie Batter: Dollop the cheesecake mixture onto the brownie batter. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the cheesecake into the brownie batter, creating a marbled effect.
- Bake: Bake the combined batter at 350°F (175°C) for about 30–35 minutes, or until the cheesecake swirl is set and a toothpick inserted into the brownie portion comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing and serving for the best texture.
Notes
- Do not overmix the cheesecake swirl into the brownie batter to maintain the marbled effect.
- Use full-fat cream cheese for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the cheesecake swirl.
- You can add chocolate chips or nuts to the brownie batter for extra texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
