HOW TO MAKE RED VELVET CHEESECAKE BROWNIES
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F.
Step 2: To make the batter, grease with cooking spray a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Use a parchment paper to line the bottom and sides of the dish, making sure to leave 2 to 3-inch overhang on each side. Then, lightly grease the parchment paper with baking spray.
Step 3: In a large microwavable bowl, add the butter and chocolate. Microwave on high for about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth. Whisk in the sugar and add in the eggs, one at a time, whisking every after each addition until just blended. Add in the food coloring and vanilla and whisk.
Step 4: In a separate bowl, add the flour, cocoa, and salt. Mix well, then, whisk into the butter mixture until just combined. And transfer into the prepared baking dish.
Step 5: To make the Cream Cheese Swirl, add the egg whites, cream cheese, and sugar in a mixing bowl. Mix with an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment for about 2 minutes on medium speed until smooth. Add in the flour and vanilla. Continue beating on low speed for about a minute until combined.
Step 6: In large tablespoons, drop the Cream Cheese Swirl into the batter. Using a knife, gently swirl to make a marble effect.
Step 7: Place inside the preheated oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 8: Remove from the oven and allow the brownie to cool in the baking sheet on a wire rack for at least an hour.
