How to cook deliciously - Pumpkin Cheesecake Brownies

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease an 8"x8" metal baking pan with cooking spray. Line pan with foil, leaving an overhang on 2 opposite sides. Grease foil with cooking spray.

2. Stage

In a small pot over medium heat, melt butter. Remove from heat, add chocolate, and stir with a rubber spatula until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla, espresso powder, and salt.

3. Stage

In a large bowl, whisk granulated sugar and brown sugar. Whisk in chocolate mixture until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking to blend after each addition, then continue to whisk until batter is well combined, about 30 seconds more. Fold in flour and cocoa powder with a spatula just until combined.

4. Stage

In a large bowl, using a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, beat cream cheese until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.

5. Stage

Add egg, pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, flour, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and salt and continue to beat until well combined and smooth.

6. Stage

Pour brownie batter into prepared pan. Using a spatula, spread in an even layer. Top brownie batter with pumpkin cheesecake batter and gently spread, making sure not to merge layers together.

7. Stage

Bake brownies until set and a tester inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs attached, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool before slicing. Dust with cocoa powder (if using).
