Chocolate Cream-Filled Brownies Ingredients: For the Brownie Layer: 1 cup unsalted butter, melted 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract 3 large eggs 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking powder For the Cream Filling: 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1/4 cup powdered sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup heavy cream For the Topping: 2 tbsp cocoa powder A pinch of powdered sugar (optional) Instructions: Make the Brownie Layer: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper. In a bowl, mix melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract. Add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add Dry Ingredients: Sift together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake the Brownies: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan. Prepare the Cream Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until combined and smooth. Assemble the Brownies: Once the brownies are completely cooled, spread the cream filling over the brownie layer. Smooth it out evenly. Top with Cocoa Powder: Dust the top with a light layer of cocoa powder for decoration. Optionally, sprinkle some powdered sugar for an extra touch. These chocolate cream-filled brownies are a perfect combination of fudgy and creamy textures, making them an irresistible dessert for any occasion. Enjoy every bite of this decadent treat!
