We didn't realize cheesecake could get even better.
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix, plus ingredients called for on box
- 2 (8 oz.) blocks cream cheese, softened
- ½ c. sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp. sour cream
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1 c. semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp. all-purpose flour
- Melted chocolate, for drizzling
- Chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325ยบ and grease an 8" or 9" springform pan with cooking spray. Prepare brownie batter according to package instructions and pour into prepared pan.
- Bake until brownie is set and a toothpick comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let cool.
- In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well between each addition. Add sour cream and vanilla and beat until evenly combined.
- In a small bowl, toss chocolate chips and flour and fold into cheesecake mixture.
- Pour cheesecake mixture over brownie crust. Wrap bottom of pan in aluminum foil and place in a deep roasting pan.

Turn off heat, prop open oven door, and let cheesecake cool in oven, 1 hour, then remove aluminum foil and refrigerate cheesecake in pan until firm, at least 5 hours and up to overnight.
