Ingredients
  

Brownie Base
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder adds a rich chocolate flavor
  • 1 cup granulated sugar balances the bitterness of the cocoa
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted ensures a moist and fudgy texture
  • 3 large eggs binds the ingredients together
Cheesecake Layer
  • 16 oz cream cheese, room temperature creates a silky and creamy texture
  • ½ cup sour cream adds tanginess and enhances creaminess
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract infuses a warm flavor
Fresh Topping
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced adds fresh flavor and color

Equipment

  • springform pan
  • mixing bowl
  • electric mixer

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a springform pan.
  2. Combine melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in the cocoa powder until just combined.
  3. Pour the brownie batter evenly into your prepared springform pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Beat cream cheese and sugar in another bowl until creamy. Mix in sour cream, vanilla, and eggs until well blended. Pour over the cooled brownie base.
  5. Bake for another 30-35 minutes until the cheesecake looks set but jiggles in the center.
  6. Cool at room temperature before refrigerating for at least four hours. Top with fresh strawberries before serving.
