CREAM CHEESE SWIRL BROWNIES



Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies image

The most perfect brownie recipe I have ever made. They're soft, yet sturdy and the perfect amount of chocolate- not to sweet or rich... just right. And, wonderful presentation, too! I would be proud to serve these to company any day!! One warning, the pan size specified is uncommon and not one that I own. I use a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 pan and bake them for 35-40 minutes. They are done when set in the middle- do not let get brown on top.

This is a terrific way to dress up a brownie mix. I must confess, instead of topping it with chocolate chips I topped it with peanut butter cups. MMM! Recipe courtesy of www.bettycrocker.com. Tip: To soften cream cheese, microwave for 10 to 15 seconds in a microwavable bowl on high.

Yield Makes 9

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup (1 stick) plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for baking dish
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (about 7 ounces)
1 1/4 cup sugar
2 large whole eggs
2 3/4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
4 ounces cream cheese
2 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly butter an 8-by-8-inch glass baking dish, and set aside. Into a medium bowl, sift together flour, salt, and baking soda; set aside.
  • Make chocolate batter: In a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, heat 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup chocolate chips until they are melted. Remove from heat, and stir in 1 cup sugar. Add half the flour mixture, and stir to combine. Add the whole eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla, and stir to combine. Mix in remaining flour mixture until it is well combined. Measure out 1/2 cup batter, and set aside.
  • Make cream-cheese batter: In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine the cream cheese, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the egg yolks, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon vanilla. Process until mixture is smooth and well combined. Transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
  • Pour chocolate batter into the prepared baking dish. Spoon the cream-cheese mixture over the chocolate batter, spreading it in an even layer to the edges with an offset spatula. Top with reserved 1/2 cup chocolate batter. Run a knife through the mixture to swirl, as desired. Bake until golden brown and the center is set when touched with your finger, 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer baking dish to a wire rack to cool. Cut into squares, and serve.

CREAM CHEESE SWIRL BLONDIES



Cream Cheese Swirl Blondies image

Velvety, delicately tart cream cheese blends well with cakey, sugary blondie batter. The resulting bars are remarkably rich and highly habit-forming.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes 9 large or 16 small squares

Number Of Ingredients 9

11 tablespoons (1 stick plus 3 tablespoons) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
1 2/3 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
6 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a buttered 8-inch square baking pan with parchment, allowing a 2-inch overhang. Butter lining (excluding overhang); set pan aside.
  • Whisk together 1 2/3 cups flour, the baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl, and set aside.
  • Put 9 tablespoons butter and the brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add 2 eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla; mix until combined. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture, mix, scraping down sides of bowl, until well combined. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Put cream cheese, granulated sugar, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons flour, 1 egg, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla into the clean bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat on medium speed until just smooth.
  • Pour half the blondie batter into prepared pan, and spread evenly with an offset spatula. Spoon two-thirds of cream-cheese mixture on top, and spread evenly. Drop dollops of remaining batter on top (spacing about 1 inch apart), and spread. Top with dollops of remaining cream-cheese mixture, about 1 inch apart.
  • Gently swirl cream cheese mixture into batter with a butter knife, running the knife lengthwise and crosswise through layers. Bake until golden brown and a cake tester inserted into center comes out with a few crumbs but is not wet, 45 to 47 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares. Blondies can be stored between layers of parchment in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% and real cream cheese.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dry brownies.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before slicing. This will help them hold their shape.
  • For a richer flavor, use melted chocolate instead of cocoa powder.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the batter to enhance the flavor of the chocolate.
  • For a fudgy texture, use more butter and less flour.
  • To make the cream cheese swirl, simply mix together cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract.
  • For a fun twist, try adding chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruit to the batter.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Cream cheese swirl brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and creamy cheesecake filling, these brownies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these brownies a try. You won't be disappointed!
