Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for cheesecake layer)
  • 1 egg (for cheesecake layer)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for cheesecake layer)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease lightly.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, 1 cup sugar, eggs, vanilla, and red food coloring until smooth.
  3. Add cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Mix until just combined.
  4. Pour most of the red velvet batter into the prepared pan, reserving about 1/4 cup for topping.
  5. In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, egg, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract until smooth.
  6. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the red velvet batter.
  7. Dollop reserved red velvet batter on top and swirl gently with a knife.
  8. Bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
  9. Cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For cleaner slices, chill brownies for at least 1 hour before cutting.
  • Use gel food coloring for a more vibrant red hue.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
