were yummy! i made them tonight after seeing them on the 12 days of cookies here at cl. (i think that was the title?) They were good. a little time consuming to me, (though I was popping my head out the door off and on checking on dd) but next time, I may try a cherry pie filling! Mmmm!

heres the recipe:

Raspberry-Cream Cheese Brownies
Filling:
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup (3 ounces) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg white

Brownies:
Cooking spray
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/4 cup butter or stick margarine, melted
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 large egg whites
3 tablespoons raspberry preserves
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. To prepare the filling, beat the first 5 ingredients at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended, and set aside.
3. To prepare the brownies, coat the bottom of an 8-inch baking pan with cooking spray (do not coat the sides of the pan). Lightly spoon 3/4 cup flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Combine 1 cup sugar and the next 6 ingredients (1 cup sugar through the 2 egg whites), stirring well with a whisk. Add to the flour mixture, stirring just until moist. Spread two-thirds of batter in bottom of prepared pan. Pour filling over batter, spreading evenly. Carefully drop the remaining batter and preserves by spoonfuls over filling; swirl together using the tip of a knife to marble. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out almost clean. Cool on a wire rack. Yield: 16 servings (serving size: 1 brownie).

Made these last night. DH said they would have been better if there was more cream cheese filling. Not bad but not worth all the effort AND dirtying 3 bowls...seems to me it shoulda been a 13x9x2 dessert for 3 bowls!

I agree, luv2cook, I made these a few weeks ago and thought they were awful - mine came out very dry and crumbly, even though I underbaked them by 10 minutes to try and keep them moist (and my oven temp is fine). I won't repeat but others seemed to have had better luck.
