Ingredients

Eggnog Cheesecake filling

225 g
full-fat cream cheese
45 g
caster sugar
20 g
plain flour
1/2 tsp.
nutmeg
30 ml
eggnog (you can use advocaat if you prefer)

For the brownie

280 g
70% dark chocolate
240 g
unsalted butter
440 g
caster sugar
180 g
plain flour
4
large eggs
20 g
cocoa powder

Directions

1. Step 1 Pre-heat oven to 180ºC (160ºC Fan/Gas Mark 4) and grease and line a 9 x 11" tin with parchment paper.
2. Step 2Start by making your eggnog filling. In a mixing bowl, add your cream cheese and sugar and mix. Next, add flour, nutmeg and eggnog and mix. Once combined, place in the fridge to chill.
3. Step 3Now for the brownie mixture. In a mixing bowl add eggs and sugar (You can either use a whisk, handheld electric whisk or mixer) and whisk until pale and fluffy, about 3-5minutes.
4. Step 4In a heat proof bowl, place the butter over a pan of simmer water. Once melted, turn off the heat and stir in the chocolate until it’s completely melted in. You can do this stage in a microwave, but you’ll need to do it in 30 second bursts and stir in-between.
5. Step 5Add flour to the egg mix and fold in. Then pour in the chocolate mix and fold in.
6. Step 6Pour half the brownie into the tin and level out. Remove eggnog mixture from fridge and spoon half of it over. Using a skewer or small knife, swirl the filling into the brownie. Pour in the rest of the brownie mixture, level out, and evenly spoon the rest of the eggnog filling on top and use a skewer or small knife again to swirl the filling into the brownie.
7. Step 7Place in oven for 25-30mins. Test with a skewer or small knife, to see if the mixture has cooked. Remove from oven and leave to cool for 10 minutes, before removing from tin and allowing to cool on a wire rack.
