- In a separate large bowl, mix together all the cheesecake ingredients until just fully combined with a silicone spatula.
- Pour about 3/4 of your red velvet batter into the pan, about 593 g or 2 1/2 cups.
- Evenly and carefully spread the cheesecake mixture over the top of the red velvet layer.
- Dollop the rest of your red velvet batter over the cheesecake batter, lightly swirling it in with a butter knife.
- Bake at 350F for about 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the top is still slightly soft.
- Transfer the pan to the fridge. Let it cool for at least 1 hour before cutting into 9 squares.
