Ingredients

Pumpkin Cheesecake

  • 3 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 tablespoon butter softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Brownies

  • 1/2 cup butter 1 stick
  • 5 ounces unsweetened chocolate coarsely chopped
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 3/4 cup flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 13x9 baking pan with foil, extending foil over the edges of the pan. Grease the foil; set pan aside.

The Pumpkin Cheesecake

  • In a medium mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer beat the cream cheese and the 1 tablespoon butter on medium for 30 seconds.
  • Add 1/2 cup sugar. Beat until well combined.
  • Beat in the egg, the pumpkin, vanilla, the cinnamon, and ginger until combined.
  • Stir in the 1 tablespoon flour. Set aside.

The Chocolate Brownie

  • Coarsely chop the unsweetened chocolate.
  • Melt the butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat. Stir and melt until smooth.
  • Beat the eggs and sugar at medium speed with a stand mixer or a hand mixer. Beat until the mixture is well blended.
  • Once the chocolate is melted, turn the mixer down to low and slowly drizzle the chocolate into the mixture. Continue to blend until the chocolate is fully mixed in.
  • With the mixer still on low, gradually add the flour and vanilla until fully incorporated.

Put it all Together

  • Spread chocolate mixture evenly in the prepared pan. Spoon cream cheese mixture in several mounds on top of the chocolate batter. Using a narrow metal spatula, gently swirl the cream cheese mixture into the chocolate batter.
  • Bake about 40 minutes or until center is just set when pan is gently shaken. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Use foil to lift uncut brownies out of pan. Cut into brownies.
