Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 4 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x9-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and semisweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and light brown sugar until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, followed by 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour two-thirds of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer. Set aside the remaining brownie batter.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and mix until creamy and lump-free.
Dollop the cream cheese mixture over the brownie base, then spoon the remaining brownie batter on top. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the layers together for a marble effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-38 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking to keep the brownies fudgy.
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Slice into 16 squares and serve.
