Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar (for cream cheese mixture)
- 1 large egg (for cream cheese mixture)
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (for cream cheese mixture)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Remove from heat and stir in the cocoa powder until smooth.
Mix in the granulated sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Set aside.
In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add in the 1/4 cup sugar, 1 egg, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and beat until the mixture is creamy and uniform.
Pour two-thirds of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
Dollop the cream cheese mixture over the brownie layer. Spoon the remaining brownie batter on top in small amounts.
Using a butter knife, gently swirl through the layers to create a marbled effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Serve and enjoy!
