Super easy to make little chocolate brownie muffins with a surprise cheesecake filling, and thanks to a suggestion from our friend Sweetlady, it's smothered with a creamy chocolate frosting and then sprinkled with powdered sugar. For a special someone's quick fix or a group of friends, these are delicious! Ingredients:
8 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese |
2 tablespoons sugar (or splenda) |
1 (20 ounce) box walnut brownie mix (moist kind with walnuts) |
3 eggs |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/4 cup water |
1 cup chocolate frosting (or thick chocolate pudding) |
powdered sugar |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Set aside. Spray a jumbo (6) muffin tin with bakers joy or non-stick cooking spray and also set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350F (or according to the box directions). Make brownie mix according to the (moist cake-like version) recipe on the box using the eggs oil and water.
3. Spoon about 2 Tbsp of batter into each greased muffin tray. (Caution: Do not use muffin paper, they will stick to the paper).
4. Drop equal portions of cream cheese (about 2 tsp) mixture into the center of each muffin, then top with remaining brownie batter. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or as package directs.
5. Allow to cool, then spread chocolate frosting (or pudding) on top followed with a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
