Dark Chocolate Cheesecake Brownies

These are particularly sinful. And yummy. And addictive.

Dark Chocolate Cheesecake Brownies

Brownie mixture:
1 c. butter (2 sticks)
2 c. white sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
4 eggs
3/4 c. Hershey's Special Dark baking cocoa (or Ghirardelli baking cocoa if you are feeling particularly indulgent)
1 c. flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt

Cream cheese mixture:
Beat together till smooth the following
8 oz. cream cheese (one normal brick)
1/3 c. white sugar
1 egg

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Blend brownie mixture ingredients until smooth.
3. Spread brownie mixture into 9X13 pan.
4. Beat cream cheese mixture with hand mixer until smooth.
5. Glob dollups of the cream cheese mixture onto the prepared brownie batter and swirl in with a toothpick or wooden skewer
6. Bake 28-30 minutes (I like them to be a little gooey still, but not liquidy in the middle when I poke a fork in)
7. It's better to cool before cutting as they cut more smoothly, but I doubt you'll be able to wait :D
