8 x 8 in square baking pan

Ingredients

For the cheesecake

8 oz cream cheese softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 large egg
2 tbsp all purpose flour
2 tbsp Baileys Irish Cream
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

For the Brownie Batter

1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 large eggs plus 1 large egg yolk
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp sea salt
2 tbsp Bailey's Irish Cream

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl combine cream cheese, sugar, egg, Baileys, flour, egg and vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
In a double boiler melt chocolate and butter stirring until well mixed.
For the brownie batter beat together sugar and eggs with an electric hand mixer using medium-high speed in a large bowl until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Mix in melted chocolate, vanilla, flour salt and Baileys using the electric hand mixer low speed on low speed until combined. A few lumps are fine.
Line an 8x8 in baking pan with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray. Pour about 2/3s of the brownie mixture into the pan, smoothing it out into an even layer. Spread the cheesecake mixture over this and then top with the remaining brownie batter. You may have spots where the cheesecake layer isn't completely covered, this is fine. Use a knife to create a swirl pattern if desired.
Bake the brownies for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to fully cool on a rack. Remove brownies from the pan and cut into 16 squares.
