🕒 Cook Time: 30 minutes
🕒 Prep Time: 10 minutes
🕒 Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup margarine
- 1/2 cup eggs (approximately 3 eggs)
- 3 oz cream cheese
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 16 pecans
Instructions:
-
Preheat and Prepare: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 inch baking pan generously to ensure the brownies don’t stick.
-
Mix the Base: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, margarine, and one of the eggs. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until they form a smooth and uniform batter.
-
Press into Pan: Transfer the batter into the greased baking pan, then use a spatula or your fingers to press it firmly and evenly into the bottom of the pan, creating a solid base for your brownies.
-
Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, remaining two eggs, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Keep mixing until the ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
-
Layer and Bake: Pour the prepared cream cheese mixture over the chocolate base in the baking pan, ensuring an even distribution. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour, or until the brownies are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Final Touch: Once baked to perfection, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool slightly. Sprinkle some extra powdered sugar and pecans on top for an irresistible finishing touch.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Cut the brownies into squares of your desired size, and get ready to savor every delectable bite of these German Chocolate Cream Cheese Brownies. Whether you’re treating yourself to a cozy night in or sharing them with loved ones, these heavenly delights are sure to be a hit!
