Ok, it is January 11th which means that people are starting to give up on their New Year's diets. Now, I WILL MAKE IT WORSE! Oh no, if you haven't already started eating brownies again, start now because there is a recipe in this post! (or two...)
Suffer, puny humans!
Haley's Epic Cheesecake Brownies:
Ingredients: 1 store-bought brownie mix (hah, you thought I was going to make these from scratch!), 1 8 oz package of cream cheese, 1 egg, 1/3 cup powdered sugar (sometimes I make twice as much cream cheese stuff as this and then bake the brownies for a few extra minutes)
Directions: Make the brownie batter as directed on the box (duh). Beat the egg, cream cheese, and sugar together until your mouth waters into the bowl (this is ok, just don't tell anyone that it happened). Pour the brownie mix into a 9x13 pan and then swirl the cream cheese mixture on top of it. For extra fun, subtly write a bad word with your swirls and see if anyone notices. Bake according to the brownie box.
Variation: try using half Nutella half cream cheese (you might have to add some water to get it to the right consistency). Also, feel free to add 1 cup chocolate chips to the brownie batter. For festive brownies, put some food coloring in the cream cheese (don't use yellow or they will look like diarrhea pats).
Good luck avoiding the temptation to make this for a friday snack.
Haley...this sounds delicious.. :) I'm going to have to try it.
