• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 tbsp cocoa powder

• 1 tbsp red food coloring

• 1 tsp white vinegar

• 2 large eggs

• ¾ cup all-purpose flour

• ¼ tsp salt

For the Cheesecake Swirl:

• 8 oz cream cheese (softened)

‍ Instructions

1. Prepare the Oven & Pan:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

• Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly.

2. Make the Red Velvet Batter:

• In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, sugar, vanilla, cocoa powder, food coloring, and vinegar.

• Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.

• Fold in flour and salt just until combined. Set aside about ¼ cup of the batter for swirling.

3. Make the Cheesecake Mixture:

• In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.

• Add sugar, egg, and vanilla. Mix until creamy and lump-free.

4. Assemble the Brownies:

• Pour the red velvet batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.

• Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the batter.

• Drop spoonfuls of the reserved red velvet batter on top and swirl gently with a knife or skewer.

5. Bake:

• Bake for 28–32 minutes, or until the center is just set.

• Let cool completely in the pan before slicing into bars.

Tips:

• For clean cuts, chill brownies before slicing.

• Add white chocolate chips to the brownie batter for extra decadence!
