Sweet raspberry preserves and a gooey cream cheese filling take plain brownies from delicious to decadent. Ingredients:
1/3 cup sugar |
1/3 cup (3 ounces) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened |
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 large egg white |
cooking spray |
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 cup sugar |
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa |
1/4 cup butter or stick margarine, melted |
1 tablespoon water |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 large egg |
2 large egg whites |
3 tablespoons raspberry preserves |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. 2. To prepare the filling, beat the first 5 ingredients at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended, and set aside. 3. To prepare the brownies, coat the bottom of an 8-inch baking pan with cooking spray (do not coat the sides of the pan). Lightly spoon 3/4 cup flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Combine 1 cup sugar and the next 6 ingredients (1 cup sugar through the 2 egg whites), stirring well with a whisk. Add to the flour mixture, stirring just until moist. Spread two-thirds of batter in bottom of prepared pan. Pour filling over batter, spreading evenly. Carefully drop the remaining batter and preserves by spoonfuls over filling; swirl together using the tip of a knife to marble. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out almost clean. Cool on a wire rack. |
