A rich and indulgent no-bake chocolate cheesecake layered over a fudgy brownie crust, filled with chocolate chips, and topped with a glossy layer of hot fudge sauce – the ultimate dessert for chocolate lovers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 boxed brownie mix
  • 1 1/2 cups 60% cocoa chocolate chips
  • 12 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups frozen whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (mini or full-size)
  • Hot fudge sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray an 8-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
  2. Prepare brownie batter according to package instructions. Pour into the prepared pan and bake as directed. Let the brownie crust cool completely.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the 60% cocoa chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  4. In a stand mixer, beat cream cheese, sugar, and butter until smooth and fluffy.
  5. With the mixer on low, slowly pour in the cooled melted chocolate and mix until fully incorporated.
  6. Using a spatula, gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until smooth and airy.
  7. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  8. Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the cooled brownie base.
  9. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until fully set.
  10. Before serving, pour a generous layer of hot fudge sauce on top and smooth it out.

Notes

  • Ensure the brownie base is completely cool before adding the cheesecake layer to prevent melting.
  • Use mini chocolate chips for a more even distribution throughout the filling.
  • Chill longer for cleaner slices, especially if making ahead for an event.
