Description
My son loves brownies, my husband loves cheesecake, and I enjoy both desserts. This recipe is a wonderful way to make everyone happy at once.
Ingredients
- Wheat Flour - 1¼ g
- Salt - 1 tablespoon
- Cocoa Powder - 2 spoons
- 70% Dark Chocolate - 10.6 oz
- Butter - 7.1 oz
- Sugar - 2 glasses
- Brown Sugar - ½ glasses
- Chicken Egg - 7 pieces
- Vanilla extract - 2¼ spoons
- Semi-soft cream cheese - 7.9 oz
- Ricotta cheese - 7.9 oz
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 356°F. Grease the baking dish with butter; you can also line the bottom with parchment paper, which should be greased as well.
Step 2
Let's start with the brownie base. In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and cocoa powder.
Step 3
Melt bittersweet chocolate and butter in a double boiler. Turn off the heat, but do not remove the mixture from the double boiler. Add sugar — white (1.5 cups) and brown. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Remove the mixture from the double boiler and let it cool to room temperature.
Step 4
Add 3 eggs to the mixture and stir. Then add one more egg and mix again. Add the fifth egg and stir once more. Finally, add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and mix again.
Step 5
Add the dry mixture of ingredients (flour, salt, and cocoa) to the prepared mixture and stir thoroughly until the dry ingredients are completely incorporated.
Step 6
Now let's move on to the cheesecake layer. It's quite simple: combine the soft cheese (you can use mascarpone, or 'Almette', etc.), ricotta, and the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar. Add the egg yolks (2) and vanilla extract (1/4 teaspoon), and mix until smooth.
Step 7
Pour the brownie mixture into the pan and smooth it out with a spatula. Now, make 8 dollops of the cheesecake mixture on top and gently swirl each dollop into the brownie layer using circular motions.
Step 8
Bake for 40–50 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick: if it's ready, a few moist crumbs will stick to the toothpick. Allow to cool and serve!
