3. How to Make the Perfect Cheesecake Brownies

Preparing the Chocolate Brownie Base

Start by melting the Ninja Air Fryer Pro Crisp & Roast 4-in-1 or a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave until smooth. Mix in the sugar and butter until well combined. Add eggs one at a time and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly each time. Incorporate the flour and stir until just combined.

Creating the Cheesecake Layer

In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar and egg until smooth and creamy. This layer should be rich and velvety, setting the stage for the classic cheesecake flavor.

Assembling the Cheesecake Brownies

Pour the brownie batter into a greased baking pan. Carefully spread the cheesecake mixture over the brownie batter. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the cheesecake into the brownie for a marbled effect.

Baking the Cheesecake Brownies

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing for neat pieces.

4. Storage Tips for Cheesecake Brownies

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
