How to Make Mint Cream Cheese Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large egg whites, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon mint extract, and a pinch of salt until light and frothy.
  4. Gently fold the egg white mixture into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), ¼ cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon mint extract with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  6. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the brownie batter. Using a knife or toothpick, swirl the cream cheese mixture into the brownie batter to create a marbled effect.
  8. Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
