Irish Cream Liquor Cheesecake Brownies

Step 1
Install rack in bottom position, then close door. Select BAKE, set temperature to 350°F, and set time to 40 minutes. Press the setting dial to begin preheating. While unit is preheating, prepare cheesecake and brownie batters.  

Step 2
In a medium bowl, add all cheesecake ingredients and mix until fully combined.  

Step 3
In a separate medium microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and butter. Microwave for 30-second intervals, mixing between intervals, until chocolate is melted and smooth.  

Step 4
In a large bowl, add sugar, eggs, and egg yolk and with a hand mixer, mix on medium-high speed until light and creamy, about 3 minutes.  

Step 5
Add the melted chocolate and remaining brownie batter ingredients to the sugar and egg mixture and mix on low speed until combined, about 1 minute. 

Step 6
Spray a 8” × 8” baking pan with cooking spray. 

Step 7
Transfer the cheesecake batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer. Then top with the brownie batter. Using a fork or toothpick swirl the brownie into the cheesecake.  

Step 8
When unit has preheated, open door and place pan onto the center of the rack. Close door to begin cooking. 

Step 9
After 40 minutes, check brownies for doneness by sticking a toothpick in the center of the brownies. If it comes out clean, remove from oven. 

Step 10
When cooking is complete, carefully remove pan from the oven. Allow brownies to cool for 1 hour before cutting and serving.
