Instructions:
-
Preheat and Prep:
- Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
- Grease the bottom only of a 13×9 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
-
-
Prepare the Filling:
- In a small bowl, combine 2 packages of cream cheese (softened), 1/3 cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons of orange zest.
- Beat the mixture until smooth and creamy. Set aside for later use.
-
Mix the Brownie Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup melted butter, 2 eggs, 8 tablespoons of water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Stir in 2 cups of all-purpose flour until the batter is smooth and well blended.
-
Layer the Batter:
- Spread half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, creating an even layer.
-
Add the Cream Cheese Filling:
- Spoon the cream cheese filling over the brownie batter in the pan, spreading it gently to cover the entire surface.
-
Create the Swirl:
- Spoon the remaining brownie batter over the cream cheese layer in dollops.
- Use a knife to create a marbled effect by swirling the batter and cream cheese together in wide curves.
-
Bake to Perfection:
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the brownies are set.
- You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs attached.
-
Cool and Serve:
- Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.
- For clean slices, use a hot, wet knife to cut the brownies into squares.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to a week.
