Ingredients

  • 2 20- ounce pouches Ghirardelli Double Chocolate Brownie Mix
  • 1 8- ounce package cream cheese room temperature
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°.
  • Prepare brownies as directed on box, using the recommended oil, water and eggs for fudgy brownies. Spread batter in to a 13"x9" pan sprayed with non-stick cooking spray or lined with foil.

Prepare cheesecake batter:

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, egg yolk, and vanilla just until smooth.
  • Put dollops of the cheesecake batter on top of the brownie batter and use a knife to swirl some of the brownie batter in to the cheesecake batter. Sprinkle chocolate chips across the top.
  • Bake 50 - 55 minutes until edges are pulling away from the side of the pan, and the middle is set but not firm. Allow to cool completely in the pan before serving.
