Way back when one of the usual name brand brownie box mixes had a recipe
for cheesecake brownies where you upgraded the brownie mix with a
cheesecake layer in the middle. I have no idea where that recipe went,
but it shouldn't be that difficult to recreate it. The resulting
brownies were quite good.
