Ingredients

Brownie Layer

Cheesecake Layer

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350* and line a 9x9” baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Place the chocolate and butter together in a microwave safe bowl. Heat in microwave on high in 30 second increments, stirring in between each session until chocolate is fully melted.
  • Remove bowl from microwave and thoroughly stir until chocolate is fully melted. Add almond flour, salt and Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener into melted chocolate and stir. Add in each room temperature egg and stir until fully incorporated. (Please note that the mixture will seem very buttery, but that’s ok, as you need this to retain moisture in the cooking). Set aside.
  • In another medium sized bowl place the room temperature cream cheese, Lakanto, room temperature egg and vanilla. Using a hand mixer on medium speed beat together this mixture until you for a creamy consistency.
  • Assemble the Brownie Cheesecake bars by spooning in ⅔ of the chocolate mixture into the bottom of the 9x9” pan. Make sure to spread brownie to each of the four corners and fully cover the bottom of the pan. Next spread the cream cheese mixture fully to cover the brownie layer.
  • Next, place remaining ⅓ of the chocolate brownie mixture on top of the cheesecake layer. Using a knife drag the tip of the knife through the chocolate dollops and cheesecake layer into creative swirls. Mix as much or as little as you would like.
  • Place pan in 350* oven for 15 minutes. At 15 minutes you must check on the brownies. The center should be set but still slightly jiggly. You DO NOT want to overcook your Brownie Cheesecake Bars as they will dry out the longer you bake. I usually go 20 full minutes in my oven to bake to perfection.
  • Remove from oven and set on kitchen counter to cool completely. Once Brownie Cheesecake Bars are fully cooled you can pull the parchment paper directly from the pan. Slice into 16 equal square bars. Enjoy.
