Brownie Cheesecake Cups
Brownie Cheesecake Cups are no-bake, layered desserts that combine crumbled fudgy brownies, creamy cheesecake filling, and luscious chocolate ganache with caramel drizzle. Perfect for parties, weeknight treats, or make-ahead desserts that taste like pure decadence in a cup.
Ingredients
For the Brownie Base:
- 2 cups fudgy brownies crumbled
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 1½ cups cream cheese softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
For Toppings and Garnish:
- ½ cup chocolate ganache
- ¼ cup caramel sauce
- ½ cup extra brownie crumbs
Instructions
- Make the cheesecake filling by beating softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.
- Whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture to keep it light and airy.
- Spoon a few tablespoons of brownie crumbs into each serving cup and press lightly to form the base.
- Add a layer of cheesecake filling, then drizzle chocolate ganache and caramel sauce for a marbled look.
- Repeat the layers until the cups are full.
- Finish with extra brownie crumbs and a final drizzle of sauce, then chill for at least an hour before serving.
