Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 16 ounce cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

2. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla. Finally, fold in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt until just combined. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.

3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until it’s smooth and creamy. Add the sugar and beat until well combined. Mix in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and sour cream. Carefully pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie layer, spreading it out evenly.

4. Bake the Caramel Brownie Cheesecake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely in the pan before removing it.

5. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar, stirring constantly, until it turns a rich amber color. Carefully add the butter and stir until it’s melted. Slowly pour in the heavy cream while continuing to stir. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the sea salt. Let the caramel sauce cool slightly before drizzling it over the cooled cheesecake.

6. Refrigerate the Caramel Brownie Cheesecake for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving. This allows the layers to set and the flavors to meld together perfectly.

Notes

To ensure your Caramel Brownie Cheesecake turns out moist, fudgy, and crack-free, here are a few helpful tips:

For the Brownie Layer: Be careful not to overbake the brownies, as this can lead to a dry, crumbly texture. Also, resist the urge to open the oven door too frequently, as this can cause the brownie layer to sink in the center.

Avoiding Cracks in the Cheesecake: To prevent cracks, make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before starting. Also, be gentle when mixing the cheesecake batter and avoid overmixing. Baking the cheesecake in a water bath can also help maintain a smooth, crack-free surface.

Chilling Time is Crucial: Allow the Caramel Brownie Cheesecake to cool completely in the pan before refrigerating. Chilling it for at least 2 hours (or up to 24 hours) will help the layers set and the flavors develop.
