Description

Brownies with a cream cheese swirl. There is also a peanut butter variation, which is in a separate recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Canola Oil
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 4 whole Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ cups Unsweetened Baking Cocoa
  • 1 package (8 Oz) Cream Cheese
  • 5 Tablespoons Butter Or Margarine
  • ½ cups Sugar, Heaping
  • 2 Tablespoons Flour, Heaping
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 Tablespoons Milk

Preparation

Mix first 4 ingredients together in a large bowl. Sift next 4 ingredients together and add to the egg mixture. This makes your brownie mixture.

Soften cream cheese and butter or margarine, then mix with 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and milk.

Spread half of the brownie mixture in a greased 9×13 pan. Spread the cream cheese over the top, then dot with rest of the chocolate mixture in blobs. Gently run a knife through the layers to create a marbled look.

Bake at 325F for 50 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

I took these to a work potluck and they went over really well but I felt like they were missing something. I would probaby make up double to the cream cheese part next time. But they were very good.

I made these last night and they were a hit! I also added an egg to the cream cheese mixture to make it more spreadable. The brownies are very moist and almost cake-like, and not too chocolatey. I will definitely make these again.

This is pretty much the perfect recipe for Cream Cheese Brownies. I had to add an egg to the cream cheese mixture to make it spreadable enough but these came out tasting oh-so-good! My husband asked for seconds and told his mom “Hey Mom, you’ve gotta try these!”

I can’t believe how moist these turned out to be. Very delicious and easy to make.

Oh these were fantastic and SO easy! I took the advice left from the members in the comments and added an extra egg to the cream cheese mixture, which made it easy to spread in contrast to the very thick, very rich brownie mixture. This recipe is going to get printed out and put in my permanent cookbook.
