Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 large egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder.
Stir dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until creamy.
Spread half the brownie batter in the prepared pan.
Dollop cream cheese mixture on top, then scatter chopped strawberries.
Spread remaining brownie batter on top and gently smooth.
Swirl with a knife or skewer for a marbled effect.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
Cool completely in the pan before slicing.
Notes
Use room temperature cream cheese for a smoother cheesecake layer.
Chill the brownies before slicing for cleaner cuts and neater presentation.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Can be frozen for up to 1 month; thaw in fridge overnight.
