Directions

  • Step one

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Stir together brownie mix, 1 egg, water and oil in large bowl until well blended. Pour into pan and bake 27 to 30 minutes. Brownies are done when toothpick inserted 1-inch from the edge of the pan comes out clean. Cool.

  • Step two

    Reduce oven temperature to 300°F. Place cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Beat in remaining 3 eggs one at a time just until blended, scraping the bowl between each addition. Do no overmix. Pour over baked brownie crust.

  • Step three

    Bake 55 minutes. Turn oven off, do not open oven door. Let cheesecake sit in hot oven 30 minutes, until just set in the center.

  • Step four

    Remove cheesecake from oven and cool at room temperature 1 hour. Remove ring from springform pan and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.

  • Step five

    Use a hot knife to slice cheesecake and clean the knife between each cut. Decorate with chocolate syrup and chocolate shavings. Serve with Reddi-wip.
