yeah u can make them with that
Just follow the recipe below





Brownie base:


2/3 cup all-purpose flour


1/4 teaspoon salt


1/2 teaspoon baking powder


2 ounces unsweetened chocolate


4 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate


1 stick unsalted butter


1 cup sugar


2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract


3 large eggs





Cream cheese filling:


1 8-ounce brick cream cheese, room temperature (do not use low-fat or no-fat)


1/4 cup sugar


1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract


1 large egg yolk





To make the brownie base: Preheat oven to 325 degrees and set oven rack at lower middle level. Stir together in a small bowl the flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside. Coat an 8-inch square baking pan with cooking spray and fit an 18- by-16-inch sheet of foil into the bottom of the pan (it will overhang the sides, which you will use as handles later to remove the brownies). Coat foil lightly with cooking spray as well.





Over very low heat, melt together the unsweetened chocolate, bittersweet chocolate and butter, stirring occasionally until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.





Whisk into the chocolate mixture the sugar and vanilla. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, fully incorporating each before adding the next. Add dry ingredients and whisk until just incorporated.





To make the cream cheese filling: In a small bowl, beat together all the cream cheese filling ingredients until of smooth, even consistency.





To finish: Pour half the brownie batter into the pan. Drop half the cream cheese mixture, by spoonfuls, over the batter. Repeat, layering remaining batter and filling. Use blade of table knife or spoon handle to gently swirl together the batter and filling, creating a marbled effect and smoothing out the top.





Bake at 325 degrees on the lower middle oven rack for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with several moist crumbs clinging to it. Cool brownies in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then use foil sling ';handles'; to lift brownies from the pan. Place brownies on wire rack and allow them to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours (to hasten cooling, place brownies in freezer for about 90 minutes). Cut into squares and serve. Makes 1 dozen bars.
So you have the brownie mix, right? And a block o' cream cheese.


Hmmmmmmmm........





Well, is it the kind of brownie mix where you add only water to make. Or do you have to add oil, eggs and all the other ingredients to it.





If it's just add water mix, reduce your water content by a third, and mix in the cream cheese until it's a nice smooth batter.





If it's the oil and egg mix, reduce your oil content by a half, and keep the eggs the same.





Remeber that the cream cheese will soften considerably when heated, and has it's own oil content, so watch how much you put into the mix, or your brownies won't have any binding agent to hold them together.


(They'll wind up more like Brownie Goop! Man I can't believe I'm actually writing this!)





If you over due it with the cream cheese, add a little flour to stiffen up the batter. And make sure the cream chees is at room temp. Nice and soft.





Let me know how they turn out.
yes just add the cream cheese while mixing it,they are really great, make sure the cream cheese is soft
