Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare your muffin tin with paper liners and nonstick spray.
  2. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of brownie batter into each prepared muffin liner and spread it evenly. Bake for 8-10 minutes until just set.
  3. Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then add granulated sugar, egg, vanilla, and heavy cream. Mix until silky.
  4. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie bases, fill evenly, and tap the muffin tin on the counter to eliminate air bubbles.
  5. Bake the cheesecakes for 15-18 minutes until slightly jiggles in the center. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
  6. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  7. Heat 3 tablespoons of heavy cream until steaming. Pour over chocolate chips and stir until smooth to make ganache.
  8. Spoon ganache over each cheesecake and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips before serving.
