ORANGE CHEESECAKE BROWNIES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. and butter and flour a 9-inch square baking pan, knocking out excess flour.
- Make cheesecake batter:
- In a bowl stir together cream cheese, sugar, and zest with a wooden spoon until smooth. Beat in egg with a fork until blended and stir in flour.
- Make chocolate batter:
- In a heavy 1 1/2-quart saucepan melt butter and chocolate over low heat, stirring, until smooth and remove pan from heat. Cool mixture 10 minutes and stir in sugar and vanilla. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well with a wooden spoon until mixture is glossy and smooth. Stir in flour and salt until just combined.
- Spread chocolate batter evenly in pan. Drop cheesecake batter by large spoonfuls onto chocolate batter and run a knife through batters to make decorative swirls. Bake brownies in middle of oven 50 minutes, or until cheesecake mixture is pale golden and a tester comes out clean. Cool brownies completely in pan on a rack before cutting into 16 squares. Brownies keep, layered between sheets of wax paper in an airtight container and chilled, 5 days. Brownies may be eaten chilled or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Use room-temperature cream cheese and butter for a smooth batter.
- Sift the flour and cocoa powder to avoid lumps.
- Do not overbeat the batter, as this can make the brownies tough.
- Use a 9x13 inch baking pan for the best results.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them into squares.
