Yummilicous Cheesecake Brownies

                                                             
 These brownies are dense with great chocolate flavor just the way we likes it.

Ingredients :
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
  • 2 oz of unsweetened baking chocolate (I used 4 oz)
  • 1 1/4 cup of sugar (I used only 1 cup)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup of flour
  • 1 tsp of vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp of baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp of salt
For the topping :
  • 1 (8 oz) low fat cream cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup of sugar
Directions :
  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom only of 8 x 8 inch square baking pan. Set aside.
  2. Melt butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth (4 to 7 minutes). Remove from heat.
  3. Stir in sugar and vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add flour, baking powder and salt; mix just until all ingredients are moistened and brownie mixture is smooth.
  4. Spread brownie mixture into prepared baking pan.
  5. For the topping beat the cheese, egg and sugar until smooth. Dollop the cream cheese mixture on top of the brownie batter. Swirl together using a knife or skewer.
  6. Bake for 25 to 33 minutes or until brownies just begin to pull away from sides of pan. Cool completely and then cut into bars and serve.
