Cheesecake marbled Brownie

Cheesecake marbled Brownie
Originally from SmittenKitchen

For me, i find it's hard to make a perfect (mean not too moist and not too dry) brownie. Most of the times i undercooked them, and the rest of the times, i overcooked them :'( But with this recipe, my kids said "MORE! MORE!! :) The texture is just right: firm but moist. The taste is great: chocolate with cream cheese is just a great mix. Not too sweet with a little crunchy feeling from chocolate chips. Love it! :)
