These Vanilla Cheesecake Brownie Cups are such a fun alternative to a regular brownie square. Think dense and fudgy, with a layer of creamy cheesecake topping. Perfect to prep before a busy week for easy sweet treats to keep stocked in the cupboard!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For these brownie cups, we rely heavily on the melted butter and light brown sugar to give the fudgy texture and super shiny topping. To make the shiny top on a brownie, there are arguments as to whether it\u2019s the egg, or the molten sugar in the butter, so let\u2019s make sure to do both. This recipe serves about 10-12 cups, and the recipe is easily doubled. They keep well in the cupboard for a few days. That said, they don\u2019t last long if you\u2019ve got lots of happy hungry mouths in the house!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brownie recipe is so simple, and comes together in no time. Once the batter has been made, pour into the muffin cups, before topping with cheesecake. The cheesecake mixture is simply cream cheese, sugar and egg. Whisk really well before topping each cup! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
