Ingredients
  

For the Brownies:

1/2 cup unsalted butter

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Cheesecake Layer:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy cream

For the Caramel Sauce:

1 cup granulated sugar

6 tablespoons unsalted butter

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon sea salt (optional for salted caramel)

For Assembly:

1 cup chocolate shavings or mini chocolate chips

Whipped cream for garnish

Caramel sauce for drizzling

Instructions
 

Make the Brownies:

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Add cocoa, flour, and salt, mixing until just combined. Pour the batter into a greased 8x8 inch baking pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few crumbs. Let cool completely.

      Prepare the Cheesecake Layer:

        In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain. Set aside.

          Make the Caramel Sauce:

            In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar until it begins to turn golden brown. Add butter, stirring until melted. Slowly drizzle in heavy cream while stirring (mixture will bubble vigorously). Remove from heat and stir in sea salt, if using. Allow the caramel to cool slightly.

              Assemble the Trifle:

                Cut the cooled brownies into bite-sized pieces. In a large trifle bowl or individual dessert cups, layer half of the brownie pieces at the bottom. Add a layer of the cheesecake mixture followed by a drizzle of caramel sauce. Sprinkle some chocolate shavings or mini chocolate chips. Repeat the layers one more time.

                  Top and Serve:

                    Finish with a final layer of whipped cream on top, drizzle with additional caramel sauce, and sprinkle more chocolate shavings. Chill for at least one hour before serving to let the flavors meld.
