Ingredients
Scale

- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and 2 cups of sugar until well combined.
- Beat in the 4 eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 large egg until smooth. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gently fold in the raspberries into the cream cheese mixture.
- Dollop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the brownie batter in the pan.
- Spread the remaining brownie batter over the cream cheese mixture.
- Gently swirl the two batters together with a knife or skewer to create a marbled effect.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
- Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
Notes
- For a more intense raspberry flavor, you can lightly mash the raspberries before folding them into the cream cheese mixture.
- Ensure your cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth cheesecake layer.
- Avoid overmixing the brownie batter to keep them fudgy.
