Description

This Ultimate Brownie Bottom Mini Cheesecake recipe combines the rich fudgy goodness of brownies with the creamy, tangy delight of cheesecake. Perfect for parties or a personal treat, these mini cheesecakes are easy to make and absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Brownie Mix (store-bought or homemade, extra fudgy recommended)
  • 8 oz full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Chocolate chips (optional)
  • Toppings: whipped cream, fresh berries, caramel or chocolate sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Mix your brownie batter according to package instructions or your homemade recipe. Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of brownie batter into each muffin cup, spreading it out evenly. Bake for 8-10 minutes, just until partially set.
  3. While the brownie layer bakes, beat the cream cheese and sugar in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and heavy cream until fully combined.
  4. Remove the muffin tin from the oven. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of cheesecake batter on top of the partially baked brownie layer. Smooth the tops gently with a spatula.
  5. Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the cheesecake layer is set but slightly jiggly in the center.
  6. Let the cheesecakes cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

Avoid overmixing the cheesecake batter to prevent cracks. Refrigerating the mini cheesecakes helps them firm up and enhances the flavor. You can make the brownie and cheesecake layers ahead of time and assemble them later.
