Ingredients

For the Brownie Base:

• 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients on package) or homemade brownies

For the Cheesecake Filling:

• 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Sundae Topping:

• 1 cup hot fudge sauce (warmed slightly)
• 1 cup whipped cream
• ½ cup chopped nuts (optional)
• Maraschino cherries for garnish

Instructions

1. Bake the Brownie Base
   Prepare brownies according to package or recipe instructions. Bake in a greased 9-inch springform pan until set. Allow to cool completely.
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling
   In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each. Stir in sour cream and vanilla until creamy.
3. Assemble and Bake
   Pour cheesecake mixture over the cooled brownie base. Smooth the top and bake at 325°F (163°C) for 50–60 minutes, until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Turn off oven, crack the door, and let cheesecake cool slowly for 1 hour. Chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
4. Add Sundae Toppings
   Before serving, drizzle cheesecake with warm hot fudge, add whipped cream swirls, sprinkle with nuts if desired, and top each slice with a maraschino cherry.
