The most perfect brownie recipe I have ever made. They're soft, yet sturdy and the perfect amount of chocolate- not to sweet or rich... just right. And, wonderful presentation, too! I would be proud to serve these to company any day!! One warning, the pan size specified is uncommon and not one that I own. I use a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 pan and bake them for 35-40 minutes. They are done when set in the middle- do not let get brown on top. Ingredients:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened |
2 1/3 cups sugar, divided |
3 eggs |
1/2 cup butter |
3/4 cup water |
2/3 cup cocoa powder |
2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1 cup milk chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Combine cream cheese, 1/3 cup sugar, and one egg in a small bowl. Set aside.
2. Mix butter, water, and cocoa in a saucepan and heat until butter is melted. Watch carefully- do not overcook chocolate!
3. In another bowl, combine flour, remaining 2 cups sugar, soda, salt, vanilla, 2 eggs, and sour cream.
4. Beat chocolate sauce into flour mixture and spread into a greased and floured 17 1/2 x 11 pan. Spoon cream cheese mixture over the chocolate and swirl with a knife to make a marbled effect. Do not over mix.
5. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top.
6. Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes or until the center is set.
