Brownie Lime Cheesecake

I love brownies! I love cheescake! So when I strumbled upon this recipe for a brownie cheescake a while ago, I bookmarked it, then forgot about it....then I found it the other day going to my recipe book. And now it was about time to try it out! I'm a little disappointed though as I overbaked it a little bit, so it wasn't as sticky as I'd hoped it would be. So next time I'll make sure to NOT overbake it...I'll stick to the amount of time suggested  in the recipe....but the cheescake filling seemed too loose, so I kept it longer in the oven...bad choice! Next time, I'll stick to the recipe and I'm convinced I've got a winner brownie cheescake.

Meanwhile make the filling. Whisk egg, limejuice, vanilla sugar and sugar. Add cream cheese and combine. After 15 minutes, take out the brownie from the oven, and gently pour the cheescake filling into the middle. Bake for another 30 minutes. The cake should be a bit sticky in the middle.
