Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted unsalted butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well. Gradually add flour, cocoa powder, and salt, stirring until combined.
  3. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese until creamy, then add sugar and mix until blended. Add an egg and vanilla extract, mixing until just combined.
  5. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the brownie base and dollop cherry pie filling on top. Swirl gently with a skewer or knife for a marbled effect.
