Indulge in the perfect blend of flavors with these gluten-free bourbon pumpkin cheesecake brownies. Rich chocolatey brownie meets creamy pumpkin cheesecake swirled with bourbon-infused goodness, creating a decadent treat for any occasion.
Ingredients: For the brownie layer:. 1/2 cup unsalted butter. 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips. 3/4 cup granulated sugar. 2 large eggs. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/2 cup pumpkin puree. 1/2 cup almond flour. 2 tablespoons cocoa powder. 1/4 teaspoon salt. For the cheesecake layer:. 8 ounces cream cheese, softened. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1 large egg. 2 tablespoons bourbon. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. For garnish:. Powdered sugar optional. Whipped cream optional.
Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350F 175C. Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan and line with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate chips over low heat, stirring constantly. Once melted, remove from heat and let cool slightly. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. Stir in the pumpkin puree. Add the melted chocolate mixture to the pumpkin mixture and stir until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly. In another mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the egg, bourbon, and vanilla extract, and beat until creamy. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie batter and spread it out evenly. Using a knife or skewer, swirl the two batters together to create a marbled effect. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing into squares. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy!
