Fudgy Cheesecake Moons
- 3/4 cup butter, cubed
- 6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons baking cocoa
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup caramel ice cream topping
- In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium heat until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add chocolate; stir until smooth.
- In a large bowl, combine the eggs, sugars and vanilla; whisk in chocolate mixture. Combine the flour, cocoa and salt; add to egg mixture and stir until smooth. Line a 15x10x1-in. baking pan with waxed paper and grease the paper; spread batter evenly into prepared pan.
- In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and cornstarch until smooth; beat in egg and vanilla. Gently spread over chocolate layer. Drizzle caramel topping over cream cheese layer in vertical lines about 1 in. apart. Use a toothpick to draw right angles across the drizzled lines, about 1/2 in. apart.
- Bake at 325u0b0 for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (do not overbake). Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for 1 hour before removing from pan. Discard waxed paper. Cut with a 3x1-in. crescent-shaped cookie cutter. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
