High Altitude Raspberry Cheesecake Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• For the raspberry sauce:
• In a small saucepan, cook the raspberries, sugar, and cornstarch over medium-low heat until soft and saucelike, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
• For the brownies:
• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and line with parchment paper cut to fit. In a saucepan, melt together the butter, chocolate, and cocoa powder, stirring until smooth. Let the mixture cool completely in the pan. Once the chocolate mixture is cooled, stir in the sugar. Then stir in the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla. Finally, stir in the flour and salt until combined. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, using a rubber spatula to scrape it all out of the saucepan, and spread the batter evenly into the pan.
• For the filling:
• In a bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sour cream. Add the sugar, and beat well. Add the egg, flour, and vanilla, and beat until the mixture is very smooth.
• Dollop the filling all over the top of your brownie batter. Using a knife, swirl the mixtures together to create a marbled effect. Then drizzle the raspberry sauce over the top, and swirl again. Bake until completely set, or until a cake tester inserted about 2 inches from the edge comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack before removing from the pan, and cut into squares to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. and butter and flour a 13-by-9 inch baking pan.
• Make brownie bar:
• In a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water melt chocolates with butter, stirring, and cool. Whisk in sugar and eggs, 1 at a time, and whisk in vanilla and salt. Whisk in flour until just combined and spread batter evenly in prepared pan.
• Make cheesecake topping:
• In a bowl with an electric mixer cream together cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy and beat in lemon juice, egg, vanilla, and salt. Beat in flour and spread mixture in an even layer over batter.
• Scatter raspberries over topping and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake brownies in middle of oven 35 to 40 minutes, or until top is puffed and pale golden and a tester comes out with crumbs adhering to it. Cool brownies completely in pan on a rack and chill, covered, at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Cut brownies into bars and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.
• Serve brownies cold or at room temperature.
