FUDGY CAPPUCCINO BROWNIES



Fudgy Cappuccino Brownies image

My Fudgy Cappuccino Brownies are getting rave reviews. This is a simple recipe that builds on several great flavors. The key is to combine Sweet Ricotta & Chocolate Spread by Villa Reale with softened cream cheese, and swirl it into a dark chocolate brownie batter. Add some espresso powder to the brownie batter and the result is an amazing treat.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 8 ounce package cream cheese (room temperature)
4 tablespoons Sweet Ricotta & Chocolate Spread by Villa Reale
1 egg
1 18.2 ounce box dark chocolate brownie mix
1 egg
1/3 cup water
½ cup canola oil
1 tablespoon powdered espresso
¼ cup mini-chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Grease a 9"x9" square baking pan. Line with parchment with overlap handles. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • With a hand mixer, mix cream cheese and egg for 3 minutes until smooth. Mix in by hand the Sweet Ricotta & Chocolate Spread.
  • Make brownie mix according to the package. Add the espresso powder with the water.
  • Pour ⅔'s of the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Dollap big spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture on top. Dollop the rest of the brownie batter on top of that. With a butter knife swirl the two mixes until you get a pleasing pattern. Do not over mix. Sprinkle mini-chips on top.
  • Bake for 30-45 minutes, depending on how fudgy you like them. They should be a little wet in the middle when removed from oven. Let cool one hour.
  • Remove the brownies from the pan with the parchment handles. Cut into squares with a sharp knife. It is easiest to dip the knife in hot water occasionally to get clean cuts.
  • Serve chilled or room temperature.
