How To Make irish cream cheesecake brownies

1
For the brownie layer: Preheat oven to 325F. Line a 9×9 pan with parchment paper or foil lightly greased with cooking spray. In a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water), melt together the butter and both chocolates until smooth. Remove the bowl from the heat and whisk in the sugar (it will be grainy). Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, then whisk in the vanilla and espresso powder, if using. Stir in the flour and salt until incorporated. Reserve 1 cup of brownie batter. Spread the rest into the bottom of the pan. Set aside while you make the cheesecake layer.

2
For the cheesecake layer: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sugar until creamy and smooth, roughly 2-3 minutes. Beat in the egg, Irish cream, and vanilla until smooth then beat in the flour. Pour over the brownie layer.
3
Drop reserved brownie batter by the spoonful on top and swirl with a knife for a marble effect. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely before cutting. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
