Marbled Brownies image

A rich, yummy brownie with a cream cheese swirl and a thin chocolate-y icing. Starts with a brownie mix, and makes a 9x13 pan. This is a recipe my mom has made for years. **Note: the 1 egg and 1/4 c. oil in ingredients is for the brownie mix I use; prepare your mix as directed on the box, if it calls for more or less oil, water, etc. **

Time 55m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

19 1/2 ounces brownie mix
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
5 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoons margarine or 3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350* and grease 9x13 baking pan.
  • Mix brownie mix as directed -- adding 1 egg and 1/4 cup oil, or whatever your mix's directions say. Set aside.
  • Mix softened cream cheese and softened butter until creamy. Add sugar, 2 eggs, flour and vanilla.
  • Pour half of brownie mix into greased pan. Pour all of cream cheese mixture over this; spoon remaining brownie mix on top, and spread as best you can - it will be thick and likely won't cover all of the cream cheese layer.
  • Swirl together with a knife.
  • Bake at 350* for 35-40 minutes.
  • For frosting: Melt margarine or butter. Add cocoa, milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla; whisk until your desired thickness. Can add more powdered sugar for a thicker icing.
  • *Hint: I sift the powdered sugar into the mixture; it helps prevent a 'lumpy' appearance since it's a thinner icing.
