Cheesecake Brownies

Here’s a recipe for two great tastes that taste great together! These cheesecake brownies are sweet and rich and perfect with a cold glass of milk. This recipe is off the Imperial Margarine website, therefore uses quite a bit of butter. So enjoy in moderation, as these treats are not low fat or low cal.

Ingredients:
8 oz. semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup butter softened, divided
2 cups granulated sugar, divided
4 eggs, divided
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, divided
1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Spray 13×9 baking dish with Pam cooking spray.
  • In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate and 1/2 cup butter. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir. Microwave in additional 30-second increments until completely melted. Cool 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, beat 1 1/4 cup sugar and 3 eggs with an electric mixer until well blended.
  • Add 1 1/4 cups flour, baking powder, salt and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla to egg mixture. Stir until well blended.
  • Add cooled chocolate to mixture and stir to combine thoroughly.
  • Evenly spread batter into prepared baking dish.
  • In a separate medium bowl, beat cream cheese, 3/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup butter with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Beat in remaining egg and vanilla.
  • Stir in remaining 1/4 cup flour.
  • Spread cream cheese mixture over chocolate batter.
  • Gently swirl batters together using the tip of a knife.
  • Bake 40 minutes or until set.
  • Cool in pan on rack.

One thought on “Cheesecake Brownies

  1. these are sooo good, but when I made mine the cream cheese mixture got mixed up in the brownie mixture more than yours (from the looks of it in the picture). Maybe I swirled too much? But nonetheless, still delicious!
