If you have a carton of pre-beaten pasteurized eggs on hand, add 1 1/2 tablespoons in place of the 1/2 egg. Set this mixture aside. * To a different mixing bowl, add the melted butter with the cocoa powder and whisk together until smooth. * Whisk in the sugar, then the eggs, then the vanilla, gel food colouring, and vinegar. Whisk the mixture together well until smooth. * Add the flour and salt and mix together with a spatula just until the flour disappears and everything is combined. * Add the thick batter to the prepared pan and press the batter to the edges and into the corners of the pan with the back of the spatula or with an offset spatula. * Gently score the top of the unbaked brownie batter in the pan to create a tic-tac-toe pattern (dividing it into 9 equally-sized squares). * In the centre of each square, add one dollop of the cheesecake mixture (about 1 1/2 tablespoons) into the middle. If you're creating the heart design, you may have some leftover cheesecake mixture to discard. * Tap the pan firmly against the table to settle the batter and the cheesecake mixture. * Take a butter knife or a dinner knife (not a sharp knife) and drag the knife (held vertically) through each of the cheesecake dollops to create the hearts (watch the video in this post for a tutorial). * Bake for 22-25 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, turning the pan once about halfway through baking to ensure the cheesecake hearts cook evenly and don't over-brown on one side. * Let the brownies cool for about 20-30 minutes before slicing and serving. 🥣 KITCHEN TOOLS USED IN THIS RECIPE: Red Stripe Towels: https://amzn.to/3JRVzFd Whisk: https://amzn.to/2WeltZA White Spatula: https://amzn.to/3Ucr9Q8 Square Cake Pan: https://amzn.to/3gMzRSx 💎ALL-TIME FAVOURITES: Instant Pot Duo 6QT: https://amzn.to/3rHNlG8 KItchen Aid Hand Mixer: https://amzn.to/3oKW34p Le Creuset Dutch Oven Pot: https://amzn.to/3rMrMnY Cast Iron Skillet: https://amzn.to/3rIUOEI Baking Sheet Pan: https://amzn.to/3uGND1X Springform Cake Tin: https://amzn.to/3rMtg1w Cutting Board Set: https://amzn.to/3sDWmzh Mixing Bowl Set: https://amzn.to/3LG4rwb Balloon Whisk: https://amzn.to/3rJU2r3 Spatula Set: https://amzn.to/3oIyTvJ Garlic Press: https://amzn.to/3rMt6XY Instant Read Thermometer: https://amzn.to/3BeC1Vb OUR FAVOURITE KITCHEN ITEMS & PROPS: ♥️ Kitchen towels: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ForestlandLinen https://www.etsy.com/shop/MagicLinen https://greengatehome.com/ ♥️ Backdrops: https://www.etsy.com/shop/InkAndElm ♥️ Dishes & Ceramics: https://blop.ro https://www.etsy.com/shop/AnnaBelleCeramics ♥️ Cookware and props: https://www.riess-markenshop.de/en https://www.falconenamelware.com/ https://lecreuset.com https://www.denbypottery.com/cast-iron https://amzn.to/3uLkPp4 ♥️ Shop my Amazon Store (with ALL my favourite kitchen products!) https://www.amazon.com/shop/thebusybakerblog 📷 OUR PHOTOGRAPHY/VIDEOGRAPHY GEAR: Canon 90D: https://amzn.to/3HfcU6G Canon 6D Mark II: https://amzn.to/3uidzR1 50mm Lens: https://amzn.to/3GiwAVW Photography lens: https://amzn.to/3uiDQis Video/Photography lens: https://amzn.to/3Hj10sl Tripod: https://amzn.to/3419mXy Light stand: https://amzn.to/3ocDaab Video/photography light: https://amzn.to/3gcxvwy Softbox: https://amzn.to/3AOJ0nj **The Busy Baker is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.**
