These Strawberry Cheesecake Brownies are made with rich fudgy brownies, perfectly sweet cheesecake topping swirled with strawberry jam. It is a rich, decadent dessert recipe that is super simple to make!
Preheat oven to 350℉/180℃. Line an 8x8-inch/20x20cm pan with parchment paper. Have a few inches of overhang on either side to make the removal of the baked brownies easier.
In a small bowl, add butter and chocolate together. Microwave or heat over a water bath until they melt completely.
In a large bowl, pour in the melted butter and chocolate. While the mixture is still hot, sift in the cocoa powder and whisk until well combined.
Add granulated sugar and brown sugar. Whisk until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Sift in the flour and salt. Whisk until well incorporated. Don't overmix.
Pour and spread the batter into the prepared pan. Set aside.
Strawberry Cheesecake
In a medium bowl, whisk together cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth.
Gently pour and spread the cream cheese batter over the brownies batter.
Drop small dollops of strawberry jam randomly on the cream cheese batter. Using a toothpick or chopstick, swirl the top, creating a marbled effect.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving.
