Equipment

9-inch Springform Pan

Ingredients

1 18.3 ounce boxed brownie mix including ingredients and prepared according to package directions
16 ounces cream cheese softened, 2 (8-ounce) packages
2 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup hot fudge sauce

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Grease a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the brownie batter evenly into the pan. Bake for 15 minutes (until the brownies are set across the top).
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract and mix well.
Scoop the cream cheese mixture over top of the brownie batter and gently spread out to cover the brownie batter.
Bake the cheesecake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, then reduce the heat to 325 degrees and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature in the pan before removing the springform pan.
Scoop the hot fudge sauce into a piping bag (or a zip top bag with the corner cut off) and pipe onto the top of the cheesecake. Cut and serve.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
