I know what you’re thinking – “That thing is going straight to my thighs!” Don’t worry, we have a great tip for all of you who want to pay attention to calories.
This recipe makes 16 pieces but you can simply cut it into twice as many smaller pieces. That way you can still have a delicious bite without having to worry about it!
Ingredients
- 1 pkg of brownie mix
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 x 8 oz pkgs. of cream cheese – softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup of sugar
- 3 whole eggs
- 2 squares semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted and cooled slightly
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Line a 13 x 9 baking pan with foil and grease it.
Prepare the brownie batter per package instructions and pour into the pan. Bake for 15 minutes or until the center is almost set.
Beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a bowl. Add the sour cream and mix well. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time on low speed just until each one is incorporated. Pour over the partially baked brownie bottom – the filling will come almost to the top of the pan.
Bake for 40 minutes or until the center is almost set. Run a knife around the rim to loosen. Allow to cool. Refrigerate overnight (or at least for a few hours), then let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving. Lift from the pan using the foil. Drizzle with the melted chocolate and allow the chocolate to set.
Quick Tip: If you have a favorite brownie recipe of your own, you can use that instead of the brownie mix!
