Description
A delicious and easy-to-make Loaded Caramel Pecan Brownie Cheesecake Cup that combines rich brownie, creamy cheesecake, and caramel toppings.
Ingredients
- 1 cup brownie mix
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whipped topping
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup mini marshmallows (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a medium bowl, combine the brownie mix, water, and vegetable oil. Stir until well blended.
- Divide the brownie batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about halfway. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
- In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined.
- Once the brownie cups are cooled, spoon the cream cheese mixture on top of each brownie base.
- Drizzle caramel sauce over the cream cheese layer, then sprinkle with chopped pecans, chocolate chips, and mini marshmallows if using.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate brownie mix instead of regular.
- Substitute walnuts or almonds for pecans for a different nutty taste.
