- Fold in chopped nuts, if you are using them.
- Put batter in prepared baking dish, evening out the batter with a spatula.
- Bake for 40- 45 minutes or until the edges of brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the dish.
- Remove from the oven and put dish on wire rack to cool.
- Immediately sprinkle dark chocolate chips over top of hot brownies.
- Lighly place a sheet of aluminum foil over dish to hold in and reflect heat.
- After about 5 minutes, when chips are melted, spread over the brownies with a spatula.
- Immediately sprinkle white chocolate over the frosting, and lightly cover dish with the foil again.
- After about 2 minutes, when chocolate is melted, gently swirl them into the dark chocolate to create a marbleized look.
- Let cool 2 hours before cutting.

Oh, my heavens, these were devine!!! A terrific combination of flavors in a moist, cake-like brownie. We couldn't wait for them to cool completely, so we ate the first few pieces while they were still warm. I'm surprised there were any left to serve when they cooled off! I took Beth's suggestion and baked these to cap off our meal with her Chipolte & Honey Glazed Pork (#49161). They really are a nice finish to a Mexican meal, but I would serve them anytime. (I even had the last one for breakfast.) Thanks, Beth. I'll make these again and again!

We enjoyed these brownies tonight as the ending to a cookout. I found them easy to put together and bake. I should have checked them sooner because as the minimum amount of time they were a tad overcooked. Not sure that it's something I'd rush to make again (they were good - just not phenomenal) but we enjoyed them. Thanks so much for posting!
