Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Mix 1st layer ingredients and pour into a greased or sprayed 9x13 cake pan and set aside.
- Next, mix 2nd layer ingredients and spoon gently over the 1st layer until its covered (this layer can be piped on using a icing bag, I find its easier than spreading).
- Last, using a butter knife, cut into the layers as if you were swirling it to mix it, so that some of the 2nd layer goes close to the bottom of the pan. (I make several "S" shaped strokes).
- Bake Brownies for 35 minutes and turn off the oven, but leave Brownies in the oven for 10 minutes more.
- Remove from the oven and let Brownies cool completely!
- Slice and enjoy.
- These Brownies can be refrigerated for up to a week.
- They are delicious cold and taste like Lemon Cheesecake!

LEMON CHEESECAKE BROWNIES FROM THE FAT WITCH BAKER
Headnotes from the cookbook: don't wiggle your nose at the idea of lemon and chocolate together. Tangy citrus and creamy fudge actually combine quite well, kind of like a yin and yang of desserts. These gooey brownies are swirled with succulent lemon cream cheese batter. The results are absolutely gorgeous.
