Marbled Brownies
Ingredients:
8 ounces semisweet chocolate
1/3 cup butter
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the plain mixture
4 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup cream cheese
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 13 by 9 inch baking pan with wax paper and grease.
Melt the chocolate and butter over very low heat, stirring. Set aside to cool. Meanwhile, beat the eggs until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the sugar. Sift over the flour, salt and baking powder and fold to combine.
Stir in the cooled chocolate mixture. Add the vanilla. Measure and set aside 2 cups of the chocolate mixture.
For the plain mixture, cream the butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer. Add the sugar and continue beating until blended. Beat in the eggs, flour and vanilla.
Spread the unmeasured chocolate mixture in the pan. Pour over the plain mixture. Drop spoonfuls of the reserved chocolate mixture on top.
With a metal spatula, swirl the mixtures to marble. Do not blend completely. Bake until just set, 35- 40 minutes. Turn out when cool and cut into squares for serving.
