MINT CREAM CHEESE SWIRL BROWNIES

This is a variation of the One-Bowl Brownies recipe from the Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate package, which is my go-to brownie recipe, made better by the addition of melted mint chips. If you want to go really minty, you could add a little dash of peppermint extract to the mix, but I think it was pleasantly minty without it.

Time 55m

Yield 24 brownies, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
3/4 cup unsalted butter (1-1/2 sticks)
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup flour
1 cup guittard mint chocolate chips, melted (about 6 oz.)
8 ounces cream cheese, softened at room temperature
1 egg
2 tablespoons flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking pan with foil, then grease the foil (cooking spray works well).

  • Add softened cream cheese, 1 egg, and 2 tablespoons flour, and beat on medium speed until mixture is well-combined (it will be a little fluffy and thick).
  • Spread the chocolate mixture into the greased foiled pan.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the mint/cream cheese mixture evenly over the chocolate and swirl a knife around the pan several times to create a marbled effect.
  • Bake for 40 minutes at 350 degrees, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with fudgy crumbs (DO NOT overbake).

Love Mint & Chocolate. These are pretty also. Add to a cookie tray for that touch of green color, and the mint flavor. From a 1981 cookie book.

Mint Chocolate Chip Swirl Brownies are easy to make and taste like Thin Mint cookies. The bright green swirl makes it a perfect treat for St. Patrick's Day!

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 20 oz box fudge brownie mix (family size for 9 x 13 baking dish)
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
1 8 oz block cream cheese (softened)
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1/4 teaspoon mint extract (not peppermint)
4-5 drops green food coloring (it should be super green)
2/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line the bottom and sides of an 9x13 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on all sides. Or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Make the brownies first:
  • In a large bowl, mix together brownie mix, eggs, oil and water until smooth. Scoop out 1⁄3 cup of the batter and set aside. Pour the rest of the batter into prepared pan.
  • Make the cheesecake swirl:
  • With a hand-held mixer, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, egg yolk, mint extract, and drops of food coloring in a medium bowl until completely smooth - about 1 minute. Stir in the mini chocolate chips by hand.
  • Dollop large spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture on top of the prepared brownie batter. Then dollop with the reserved 1⁄3 cup of the brownie batter. Glide a knife through the layers, creating a swirl pattern (taking care not to over-swirl.)
  • Sprinkle a few more mini chocolate chips on top.
  • Bake brownies for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out almost clean. Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting into squares.

4 ounces mint chocolate, chopped (I used Hershey's Extra Dark Pure Mint)
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 egg yolk
5 tablespoons granulated sugar

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-inch square pan with non-stick spray or grease lightly. Melt the butter and chocolate in the microwave or over low heat, stirring until smooth. Beat in the sugar and eggs. Mix in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt, then add in the vanilla. Spread evenly in the prepared pan. In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, egg yolk, sugar, and mint extract until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips. Distribute the cream cheese mixture in eight dollops across the top of the brownie mixture, then take a dull knife or spatula and swirl the cream cheese mixture with the chocolate batter. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the batter in the center of the pan feels just set. Let cool, then cut the brownies into squares for dipping.
