Brownie Caramel Cheesecake is such a decadent dessert.

Share a picture on Instagram and Facebook when you make it, and you’ll have friends and family members rushing over for a visit. Trust me, this will happen. I speak from experience.

I love it when a dessert comes together easily, yet looks like you spent hours preparing it. Such is the case with this Brownie Caramel Cheesecake recipe. It’s a lot simpler to make than you might think.

Brownie Caramel Cheesecake with a slice removed, topped with caramel and chocolate fudge drizzles.

Ingredients:

Recipe makes 1 – 9 inch springform pan.

  • 1 – 9 ounce package brownie mix
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon cold water
  • 1 – 14 ounce package individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped
  • 5 ounces evaporated milk
  • 2 – 8 ounce packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup chocolate fudge topping

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan. Tip: Wrap the bottom of the pan in foil to prevent leakage.

Step 2: In a small bowl, combine the brownie mix, 1 egg and water. Using a fork or a whisk, mix thoroughly then spread into the greased pan. Bake for 25 minutes.

Step 3: Meanwhile, in a heavy saucepan, melt the caramels with the evaporated milk over low heat. Stir often, and heat until a smooth consistency is achieved. Reserve 1/3 cup of the caramel mixture, and pour the remainder over the warm, baked brownie crust.

Step 4: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour cream cheese mixture over caramel mixture.

Step 5: Bake for 40 minutes. Chill in pan at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. When cake is well chilled, loosen by running a knife around the edge, and then remove the rim of the pan. Heat the reserved caramel mixture, and spoon over cheesecake. Drizzle with warmed chocolate fudge topping.
