Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a 9x9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on each side.
- Make the brownie batter by combining chocolate and butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until melted and smooth, or melt in the microwave at 50% power in short bursts.
- In a large bowl, combine eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Whisk or beat until pale and thick. Whisk in the warm melted chocolate mixture until smooth and glossy.
- Sprinkle flour over the surface of the mixture and fold it in. Reserve about ⅓ cup of brownie batter and spread the rest evenly into the prepared pan.
Cheesecake Preparation
- Make the cheesecake batter by beating cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth. Add sugar and vanilla, then beat until smooth and glossy. Beat in egg until well incorporated.
- Spread the cheesecake batter evenly over the brownie batter in the pan. Spoon teaspoons of the reserved brownie batter randomly over the top.
Raspberry Swirl
- Make the raspberry swirl by combining raspberries, sugar, and corn starch in a small bowl and mashing with a fork, leaving it slightly chunky. Spoon teaspoons of this mixture over the batter in the pan and swirl together with a skewer.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes until puffed and the cheesecake is set in the middle with lightly golden edges.
Cooling
- Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing with a hot dry knife.

Notes
For a fun twist, substitute raspberries with strawberries or cherries. You can also enhance the flavors with a sprinkle of sea salt on top.
