Ingredients

YOU WILL NEED

BROWNIES

CHEESECAKE SWIRL

Steps

01.

Combine egg, water and oil or butter in a large mixing bowl. Add contents of brownie mix sachet to the bowl and mix with hand whisk or spatula until the brownie batter is smooth and glossy. Set batter aside.

02.

In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, frosting mix and remaining egg until smooth.

03.

Pour brownie batter into prepared tin before dolloping cheesecake mixture over the top. Take a skewer or butter knife, and run it through the cheesecake mixture, using a swirling motion to create a marble effect. You can use as much or as little cream cheese as desired.

04.

Preheat oven to 170 C. Grease brownie pan with oil, and line the base with baking paper. Bake for approximately 40 mins or until the cheesecake layer feels set to touch (Note: cover with foil if cheesecake layer is becoming too brown under heat).

05.

Allow brownies to cool in the pan before slicing into 3 cm × 3 cm portions.

06.

Serve at room temperature or chilled. Store refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
