Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 16

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH:
1 1/4 c brown sugar, light
3/4 c Crisco
2 Tbsp milk
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 egg
1 3/4 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 c chocolate chips
1 c chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts), optional
CREAM CHEESE FILLING:
2 pkg cream cheese (8 oz. each)
1 c sugar
2 Tbsp vanilla extract
2 eggs

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, mix all ingredients for chocolate chip cookies in the order listed above. Divide into two parts and set aside.
  • 2. In a second bowl, mix all cream cheese filling ingredients until smooth.
  • 3. Spread one part of cookie dough on the bottom of greased 13 X 9 pan. (Mine measures 13 3/4 by 9 1/2). It will help if your hands are wet, otherwise, the dough will stick to your fingers.
  • 4. Pour the cream cheese filling over the cookie dough.
  • 5. Top the filling with the remaining dough by creating dabs of dough (or little pancakes of dough). Once again it will help if your fingers are wet.
  • 6. Bake at 350 F for about 50 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
  • 7. Cool and divide into bite-size pieces (about 40 or so). Enjoy it as much as we do!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 50% is ideal.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense brownie. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly brownies.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Conclusion:

These chocolate cream cheese brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them fudgy or cakey, with nuts or without, these brownies are sure to be a hit.
