Ingredients
Brownie Layer
- 1 cup unsalted butter Melted
- 1.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.75 cups cocoa powder
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cheesecake Layer
- 8 oz cream cheese Softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream Whipped to stiff peaks
Assembly
- 1 cup caramel sauce Store-bought or homemade
- Chocolate shavings or nuts for garnish Optional
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, melt the butter and stir in granulated sugar and cocoa powder until smooth.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.
- Gradually fold in the flour until just combined. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes. Let cool completely.
Cheesecake Mixture
- In another bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
Assembly
- Cut the cooled brownie into cubes.
- In a large trifle dish, layer brownie cubes, cheesecake mixture, and caramel sauce. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used.
- Finish with whipped cream and drizzle with more caramel sauce. Garnish with chocolate shavings or nuts.
- Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
Make sure the brownies are completely cooled before cutting them; this helps them hold their shape when layered. Use store-bought caramel sauce for ease, or make your own for a fresher taste. You can vary the toppings based on personal preference. Try adding crushed cookies or fruit for a different flavor.
