Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies image

I'm a chocolate lover, and these cream cheese brownies have satisfied my cravings many times. No one guesses the brownies are light because their chewy texture and rich chocolate taste can't be beat. My family requests them often, and I'm happy to oblige. -Heidi Johnson, Worland, Wyoming
