Beat cream cheese with electric mixer on med.
speed until smooth.
Add sugar, mixing until blended.
Add egg and vanilla; mix just until blended.

These were really good. But, I added 2-8oz packages of cream cheese and 2/3c sugar and 2 eggs. I could tell that for a 9X13 pan only one wasn't going to be enough. But, overall it was tasty.

I made these tonight with a Betty Crocker brownie mix and everyone loved them. They were pretty and they are already GONE!

I made these brownies years ago, but then managed to lose the recipe! I am thrilled to find it again! This is an awesome way to dress up a boxed mix if you are short on time, or make your already fabulous homemade brownie recipe even better! Only problem i found was that you have to be very careful of how long you bake them, once the cheesecake layer starts to brown it darkens very quickly! The first time i made them my DH swore they were not burnt, they just had a nice "carribean tan." Thanks for posting!

I made these using my home made brownie recipie. Instead of covering the whole pan I placed globs of the cheesecake mixture on top and swirled with a toothpick. The Cream cheese addition took my brownies from great to amazing
