CREAM CHEESE BROWNIES

Ingredients
Brownies
10 tablespoons butter
½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup plus 1 ½ tablespoons cocoa powder
¾ cup brown sugar
¾ cup granulated sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅔ cup flour
1 ½ tablespoons water
Cream Cheese Mixture
8 ounces cream cheese
¼ cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 11×7 inch baking dish with aluminum foil or parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
Melt the butter and the chocolate chips in the microwave at 1-minute intervals at 50% power until melted and smooth. Stir in the cocoa powder until dissolved. Stir in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, eggs, vanilla extract, and flour. Spread 3/4 of the batter in the prepared pan.
Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer on medium speed, beat the cream cheese and sugar until creamy. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. Using an offset spatula, spread the cream cheese mixture over the brownie mixture.
