For the Recipe

For the Brownie Base:

All-purpose flour - 1 cup
Cadbury Cocoa powder - 2 tsp
Brown Sugar (powdered) - 2 tsp or adjust as per taste
Melted butter - 1/2 cup
Egg - 1
Vanilla essence - 1 tsp
A pinch of salt
Baking powder - 1/4 tsp

Directions

Cheesecake Brownie-In a large mixing bowl

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and powdered brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth, well incorporated, and slightly glossy.

Cheesecake Brownie-Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl

Step 2

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, then beat vigorously with a whisk or hand mixer until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.

Cheesecake Brownie-In a separate bowl sift together

Step 3

In a separate bowl, sift together the Cadbury cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder, then mix well to combine.

Cheesecake Brownie-Gradually fold the dry ingredients

Step 4

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, adding a little at a time to ensure even blending.

Cheesecake Brownie-Keep on stirring just until combined

Step 5

Keep on stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the brownies tender and moist.

Cheesecake Brownie-Transfer the majority of the brownie

Step 6

Transfer the majority of the brownie batter into a greased baking pan, setting aside 2–3 tablespoons to use for decorating. Smooth the batter out with a spatula, making sure it’s evenly distributed and reaches all corners of the pan.

Cheesecake Brownie-In a separate clean bowl

Step 7

In a separate clean bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer or whisk until completely smooth and creamy, with no lumps remaining.

Cheesecake Brownie-Add the powdered sugar

Step 8

Add the powdered sugar, egg, and vanilla essence to the cream cheese, then beat until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well incorporated.

Cheesecake Brownie-Carefully pour the cheesecake mixture

Step 9

Carefully pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie layer and spread it evenly, ensuring the layers remain distinct.

Cheesecake Brownie-Spoon the reserved brownie batter

Step 10

Spoon the reserved brownie batter onto the cheesecake layer and use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the two mixtures together in a marbled effect -take care not to over-swirl. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Once heated, place the pan in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs, not wet batter.

Cheesecake Brownie-Once baked allow the brownies

Step 11

Once baked, allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. For cleaner, firmer cuts, refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing. Cut into squares and serve as desired.
