Ingredients

For the Brownie Layer:

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter

2 cups granulated sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

4 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

For the Cheesecake Layer:

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 large eggs

1 cup sour cream

For the S’mores Topping:

1 cup mini marshmallows

1 cup crushed graham crackers

1/2 cup chocolate chips

Optional: extra graham cracker pieces and chocolate bars for decoration

Instructions

Prepare the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.

Make the Brownie Layer:

- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.

- Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until fully incorporated.

- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared springform pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let it cool while you prepare the cheesecake layer.

Prepare the Cheesecake Layer:

- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

- Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until combined. Add in the vanilla extract, followed by each egg one at a time, making sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.

- Mix in the sour cream until the cheesecake batter is smooth.

- Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled brownie layer in the springform pan, spreading it evenly.

Bake the Cheesecake:

- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center still has a slight jiggle. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Prepare the S’mores Topping:

- Once the cheesecake is chilled and set, preheat the broiler.

- Sprinkle the mini marshmallows, crushed graham crackers, and chocolate chips evenly over the top of the cheesecake.

- Broil for 1-3 minutes, watching closely, until the marshmallows are golden brown and toasted.

Final Touches: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. If desired, top with extra graham cracker pieces and chocolate bars for decoration.

Serve: Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Slice and serve your scrumptious S’mores Brownie Cheesecake chilled. Enjoy the layers of brownie, creamy cheesecake, and gooey s’mores topping!
