Cream cheese brownies

I have been experimenting now with cooking for at least five years and baking since I was a child. However, one thing that I have never made is brownies from scratch. I recently decided to give it a try. Even though I did not follow the recipe exactly (I almost never do), they still turned out deliciously.

I also got a double boiler for Christmas and wanted to try it out. I started by putting 4 oz of German Chocolate with 3 Tbs butter and melting it all together until smooth; stirring frequently but not constantly....

Next, set the chocolate aside to cool and combine 1 package cream cheese and 1 cup sugar in a large bowl. Add 3 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 cup flour, a pinch of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder.  Fold in chocolate and transfer to a 9x13 inch pan.

Bake at 350 degrees Farenheight for 25 minutes. The result is a chewy and delicious chocolate brownie that will beat any mix you find. The original recipe is below and, as you can see, I forgot to swirl the cream cheese on top. Mixing it all together worked just fine for me.
