Ingredients

📦 1 box of fudge brownie mix
🥚 Eggs (as per brownie mix instructions)
🛢️ 1/3 cup vegetable oil (or as per brownie box instructions)
💧 1/3 cup water (or as per brownie box instructions)

🧀 2 x 8 oz packets of Philadelphia cream cheese, room temperature
🍚 1/4 cup sugar
🥄 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
🥚 2 eggs

🍫 Chocolate chips
🍯 Caramel sauce

Instructions

1- Preheat and Prepare:

• Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
• Grease a baking pan thoroughly with butter or non-stick spray.

2- Prepare the Brownie Mix:

• Follow the instructions on your box of fudge brownie mix using the specified eggs, oil, and water.
• Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing it into an even layer. Set aside.

3- Make the Cheesecake Layer:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
• Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition until fully incorporated.
• Pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie layer in the pan, spreading it evenly.

4- Marble the Mixtures:

• Using a knife, gently swirl the cheesecake and brownie mixtures together to create a marbled effect.

5- Bake:

• Place the pan in the oven and bake for 45 to 55 minutes. The cheesecake should be set, and if a knife is inserted in the center, it should come out mostly clean.

6- Cool:

• Remove from the oven and let it rest at room temperature for about an hour. It’s important not to cut it while it's hot. Allow it to cool completely.

7- Prepare the Caramel Topping:

• Melt the caramel bites with a splash of milk, following the instructions on the bag, until smooth.

8- Finish and Serve:

• Pour the melted caramel sauce over the cooled cheesecake brownie. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
• Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
