Decadent Hot Fudge Sundae Brownie Cheesecake Delight

Layers of rich brownie, creamy cheesecake, and luscious hot fudge combine to create a decadent dessert that’s ideal for celebrations or cozy gatherings.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 16 oz cream cheese
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup hot fudge sauce
  • Whipped cream for serving
  • Chopped nuts optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease a 9-inch springform pan with butter.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
  • Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, blending after each addition.
  • Stir in vanilla extract and cocoa powder, then mix in flour until just combined.
  • Pour the brownie batter into the prepared springform pan and spread evenly.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • While the brownie bakes, prepare the cheesecake mixture. Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  • Pour the cheesecake mixture over the baked brownie layer.
  • Bake for an additional 35-40 minutes. The cheesecake should be set but slightly jiggly in the center.
  • Allow the cheesecake to cool completely in the pan, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  • Before serving, melt the hot fudge sauce and drizzle over slices as desired, topped with whipped cream and optional nuts.
