These are the real deal. 100% homemade through and through. Unlike the other Cream Cheese Brownie recipes on Recipezaar, this one has ALOT of cream cheese - 16 ounces of it. A really rich dessert.
Ingredients:
6 ounces semisweet chocolate
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 cups sugar
4 eggs, room temperature
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line a 13 x 9 pan with foil and then butter it or cover it with non-stick spray.
3. Melt both chocolates together.
4. Cool the melted chocolate mixture for 10-15 minutes. (You can do the steps below while it's cooling.).
5. In a bowl, beat all of the cream cheese and 1/3 cup of the sugar together.
6. Beat one of the eggs and 1 teaspoon of the vanilla extract into the cream cheese mixture.
7. In a different bowl, beat all of the butter and the remaining 1 and 2/3 cups sugar together.
8. Beat the remaining 3 eggs one at a time into the butter mixture.
9. Beat all of the chocolate mixture and remaining 2 teaspoons vanilla into the butter mixture (it's officially a brownie mixture now).
10. Beat all of the flour and all of the salt into the brownie mixture.
11. Spread all but 1 cup of the brownie mixture in the bottom of the pan.
12. Spread the cream cheese mixture on top of the brownie mixture.
13. Swirl the remaining 1 cup of brownie mix over the cream cheese.
14. Bake 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted 2 inches from the center comes out with only a few crumbs.
