  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 60% cocoa chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted. Let it cool slightly.
  3. Soften cream cheese in a stand mixer, add sugar and butter, and beat until smooth. Gradually mix in the cooled melted chocolate until combined.
  4. Gently fold thawed Cool Whip into the chocolate cream cheese mixture and then stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  5. Spread the cheesecake filling over the cooled brownie layer in the springform pan. Cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
