Ingredients
Scale
For the Brownie Layer:
- 1 box (18.3 oz) brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
For the Cheesecake Layer:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Toffee Topping:
- ¾ cup Heath toffee bits
- ¼ cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it well.
- Prepare the brownie batter according to the package instructions. Stir in ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips if using. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Drop spoonfuls of the cheesecake mixture over the brownie batter. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the layers together.
- Sprinkle Heath toffee bits and mini chocolate chips over the top.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cheesecake layer is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the brownies cool for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For best results, use room temperature cream cheese to ensure a smooth cheesecake layer.
- Don’t over-swirl the cheesecake into the brownies—distinct layers create a beautiful marbled effect.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- For an extra indulgence, serve with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce.
