Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Base

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Preparation of Filling

    Prepare Filling

    In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined and creamy.

Baking

    Layer Base and Filling

    Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the batter, then pour the remaining brownie batter on top.

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.

    Once the brownies have cooled, spread the chocolate ganache over the top and sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired.
