Ok you guys. Lo and behold, this dessert is magic. You always want to have coffee & brownies right? But what if you had both in one dessert. Bomb .
There is a layer of my favorite brownies recipe that I created and then there is a layer of coffee cheesecake. Yes. You.heard.that.right.
On top of it all it is super easy to make . Winner situation.I know I say that a lot but it is.
So happy baking!
Ingredients for Brownies:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 1/2 cup brown sugar or 1 1/4 cup white sugar
- 3/4 good quality cocoa powder
- 1/2 all purpose flour
-1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Ingredients for the cheesecake layer:
- 1 brick of cream cheese or 8 oz of your favorite cream cheese
- 1/4 sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
General Recipe is up in my highlights under Coffee Brownies.
A few Notes:
- I used a round springform pan but you can use an 8 by 8 pan for baking.
- I reserved some brownie mixture for the swirl on top, you really do not need to.
- Bake at 330 ° F for 30 to 35 minutes.If the middle of the cheesecake has a bit of a give but feels firm, the cake is done.
- If you think it is browning too quickly on top, cover it with foil, mine didn’t need to but every oven is different.
- Cool completely and then put it in the refrigerator to cool for at at least four hours.
Enjoy!!
