2. Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together 1/3 cup sugar, cream cheese, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour until well-blended. Set aside.

3. Prepare the brownie batter: Coat the bottom of an 8-inch baking pan with cooking spray, ensuring not to spray the sides of the pan.

4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, lightly spoon 3/4 cup flour into dry measuring cups and level with a knife. Combine this with baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

5. Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup sugar, butter, margarine, water, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and egg whites until well combined.

6. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Add the wet mixture to the flour mixture, stirring just until moistened.

7. Layer the batter: Spread two-thirds of the brownie batter into the bottom of the prepared pan.

8. Add the filling: Pour the cream cheese filling evenly over the batter layer in the pan.

9. Swirl: Carefully drop spoonfuls of the remaining batter and raspberry preserves over the cream cheese filling. Use the tip of a knife to swirl them together, creating a marbled effect.

10. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 40 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out almost clean.

11. Cool: Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
