Frosted Cream Cheese Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
• Prepare the brownie mix according to package directions (water, oil, eggs).
• Pour into a greased 13x9-inch baking pan.
• Beat cream cheese with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
• Add sugar and mix. Add vanilla and egg; mix until well-blended.
• Place cheese mixture in dolups over the whole pan, leaving some brownie showing inbetween.
• Cut or swirl through batter several times with a knife or fork for a marbled effect. It can be tricky to get a good marble effect so be careful not to over work it.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool; cut into squares. (These will also freeze well).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8 baking dish with 1 teaspoon butter.
• Whisk 1 cup sugar and melted butter together in a bowl. Add vanilla, cocoa powder, salt, food coloring, vinegar, and eggs to sugar mixture, blending well after each addition.
• Stir flour into sugar mixture until batter is just combined. Pour batter into prepared baking dish, reserving 1/3 cup batter for cream cheese layer.
• Blend cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, egg, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Spread cream cheese mixture over brownie batter in the prepared baking dish. Pour reserved 1/3 cup brownie batter in 2 rows over cream cheese layer. Pull a knife through the batter rows into cream cheese layer to form swirls.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool completely before slicing.
