How to Make Brownie Bottom Mini Cheesecakes
  1. Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners, spraying them lightly with nonstick spray.
  2. Prepare Brownie Base: Spoon one tablespoon of brownie batter into each liner and bake for 8-10 minutes until just set. Let cool slightly.
  3. Mix Cheesecake Layer: Beat cream cheese until smooth, then blend in sugar, egg, vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream until silky.
  4. Assemble Cheesecakes: Pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie bases and gently tap the pan to release air bubbles.
  5. Bake Together: Bake for an additional 15-18 minutes until the centers are just set and cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  6. Prepare Ganache: Heat 3 tablespoons of heavy cream until steaming, pour over chocolate chips, let sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth.
  7. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.
