Cook Time

Yield

9 brownies

Ingredients

Brownie Layer

• 4 oz unsweetened chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup of butter (4 oz)
• 1/4 cup Pyure Bakeable Blend Stevia Sweetener
• 3 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Cream Cheese Layer

• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 egg
• 3 tbsp Pyure Organic Powdered Confectioners Stevia Sweetener
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Grease an 8-inch square pan and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Melt chocolate and butter in a double boiler. Stir occasionally until the chocolate is melted and the ingredients are well-blended.

3. In a medium bowl, mix Pyure Bakeable blend, eggs, and vanilla extract.

4. Slowly stir the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture. Continue stirring until smooth.

5. Pour the batter into prepared pan.

6. Next, prepare the cream cheese layer. Beat the softened cream cheese and the Pyure Powdered Confectioners stevia sweetener together until light and fluffy.

7. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture.

8. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the chocolate batter already in the pan. Using a knife or spatula gently swirl the cream cheese into the chocolate batter. Remember, you want the swirls to be obvious, so you only need to do one or two passes.

9. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.

10. Cool then cut into squares.
