Ingredients:

Serving

brownie crust:
1/4 cup butter, cubed
3 oz unsweetened chocolate
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2/3 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/8 tsp baking powder
1 oz semisweet chocolate
filling:
1 jar (12 oz) creamy peanut butter
2 packages (1 8 oz, one 3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
topping:
3/4 cup sour cream
2 tsp sugar
melted semisweet chocolate , optional

Directions:

In a microwave, melt butter and unsweetened chocolate; stir until smooth. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat brown sugar and eggs until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in chocolate mixture and vanilla. Combine flour and baking powder; gradually add to batter and mix well. Stir in chopped chocolate.
Spread 1 cup into a greased 9-in. springform pan. Cover and refrigerate remaining batter. Place pan on a baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 17-19 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes; place in freezer for 15 minutes.
For filling, in a large bowl, beat the peanut butter, cream cheese and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and sour cream; beat on low speed just until combined. Spread remaining brownie batter about 1-1/2 in. high around sides of pan, sealing to baked crust.
Pour filling into center. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until center is almost set.
For topping, combine sour cream and sugar; spread over filling to within 3/4 in. of edges. Return cheesecake to the oven; turn oven off and let stand for 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight. Drizzle with melted chocolate. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 12 servings.
