Red Velvet Cheesecake Swirl Brownies

Ingredients You’ll Need:

Now, let’s gather the ingredients. Here’s what you need to whip up these scrumptious brownies:

  • 1 box of Red Velvet cake mix
  • 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg (for the cheesecake layer)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: chocolate chips for extra decadence

Let’s Get Baking!

Oh, you’re gonna love this! Let’s assemble our delicious concoction:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Red Velvet cake mix, vegetable oil, 2 eggs, and water. Stir until smooth and well combined. Pour half of this mixture into your prepared baking pan.
  3. In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 egg, and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth. Spread this cheesecake layer over the first layer of brownie batter in the pan.
  4. Top the cheesecake layer with the remaining brownie batter. Use a knife to gently swirl the brownie batter with the cheesecake batter for that perfect marble effect.
  5. If you’re feeling adventurous, sprinkle some chocolate chips on top—because why not? Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
  6. Once done, let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Time to Dig In!

Once your brownies have cooled (if you can wait that long), cut them into squares and dive into the red velvety goodness topped with a creamy cheesecake layer. Trust me, your dessert cravings will thank you! Enjoy!
