Mint Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies

Mint Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking pan with foil, then grease the foil (cooking spray works well).

2. In a large bowl, melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter together (you can do this in a double boiler or in the microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes). Set aside and let cool about 10 minutes.

3. Add sugar, vanilla, and 4 eggs to chocolate mixture, and stir until well-combined.

4. Add 1 cup flour and stir until flour is completely incorporated.

5. In a separate mixing bowl, melt 1 cup green mint chips (again, on a double-boiler setup or in the microwave).

6. Add softened cream cheese, 1 egg, and 2 tablespoons flour, and beat on medium speed until mixture is well-combined (it will be a little fluffy and thick).

7. Spread the chocolate mixture into the greased foiled pan.

8. Drop spoonfuls of the mint/cream cheese mixture evenly over the chocolate and swirl a knife around the pan several times to create a marbled effect.

9. Bake for 40 minutes at 350 degrees, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with fudgy crumbs (DO NOT overbake).
