Method
 

Preparation and Baking
  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Prepare brownie batter and spoon about 1 tablespoon into each muffin liner. Bake for 8-10 minutes until just set.
  3. In a bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth, mix in sugar, then add egg, vanilla extract, and heavy cream. Blend until silky.
  4. Pour cheesecake mixture over cooled brownie bases in muffin tin and tap to dislodge air bubbles.
  5. Bake mini cheesecakes for 15-18 minutes; let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  6. Heat heavy cream until steaming and pour over chocolate chips; stir until smooth to create ganache.
  7. Once cheesecakes are cooled for at least two hours, drizzle ganache over each and sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top.
