How to Make Brownie Bottom Cheesecake Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Prepare the brownie layer: In a large bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder. Mix until well combined.
- Gradually add flour and baking powder to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- While the brownie layer is baking, prepare the cheesecake layer: In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, beating until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Pour the cheesecake batter evenly over the partially cooled brownie layer.
- Bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to fully set.
- Once chilled, cut into bars and serve. Enjoy!
