While brownie base has been set aside, combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. On the lowest speed, mix for 1 minute. Slightly increase speed and beat for 2-3 minutes until creamy. Reduce to lowest speed and add eggs, one at a time then the cream, beat 20-30 seconds until just combined.
