Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Coffee Brownie Cheesecake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it and lining the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat, then stir in the granulated and brown sugars. Allow cooling slightly before adding the eggs and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold dry ingredients into the butter and sugar mixture, then gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the brownie batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the brownies cool in the pan on a wire rack until completely cooled.
- Lower the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, gradually add granulated sugar, and mix in eggs and vanilla extract.
- Mix in cooled brewed coffee and flour until smooth. Pour this cheesecake batter over the cooled brownie layer.
- Bake cheesecake for 50-60 minutes until the edges are set while the center jiggles slightly. Turn off the oven and cool for about an hour.
- Cover the cheesecake and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
- Carefully remove from the springform pan, slice, and serve.
