Coffee and cream cheese give rich flavor to brownies. The recipe uses a boxed brownie mix to save time, but you would never know it from the end result.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 (3 ounces) package cream cheese, softened
  • 2 Tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 4 eggs, divided use
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 Tablespoon flour
  • 2 Tablespoons instant coffee granules
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 (19.8 ounces) box family size brownie mix
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine cream cheese and butter; blend thoroughly. Add sugar and blend until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 egg and vanilla, then stir in flour and mix well. Set aside.

In medium bowl, dissolve coffee in water. Add brownie mix, remaining eggs, and vegetable oil; blend well. Pour half the batter into greased 9 x 13-inch baking dish.

Drop cheese mixture by heaping tablespoons over brownie batter. Pour remaining batter over cheese mixture and gently swirl a butter knife through it to create a marbled effect. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.

Yield: 24 to 36 brownies, depending on cut size
