Ingredients

16 servings

For the brownie batter

½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
4 oz bittersweet chocolate (60–70% cacao), roughly chopped
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
¼ tsp salt

For the cream cheese swirl

8 oz cream cheese, softened
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two opposite sides to use as handles for lifting.
2
Combine the butter and chopped bittersweet chocolate in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently, until both are fully melted and the mixture is smooth, about 4–5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
