Brownie Swirl Cheesecake


We recently had our supper for 6 group meet at our home. I needed to come up with an easy dessert to make and wanted it to be fun. I love it when I can find a cheesecake recipe that doesn't require a ton of cream cheese. This one only calls for 2! yeah! It was well recieved and the leftovers were awesome! I found this recipe here. It comes from the cookbook, Quickcooking.


Ingredients:

1 package (8 ounces) brownie mix (that's about 1/2 of a regular brownie mix)
2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup Granulated Pure Cane Sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 cup milk chocolate chips, melted
Whipped cream and miniature chocolate kisses, optional


Directions: Prepare brownie mix according to package directions for chewy fudge brownies. Spread into a greased 9-in. springform pan. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes (brownies will not test done). Cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour over the brownie crust. Top with melted chocolate; cut through batter with a knife to swirl the chocolate. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until center is almost set. Run a knife around edge of pan to loosen; cool completely. Remove sides of pan; refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Top with whipped cream and chocolate chips.
