Ingredients
For the chocolate batter:
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 1/2 squares (1 1/2 ounces) unsweetened chocolate
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
For the cream cheese mixture:
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
In a small saucepan, combine water, butter, and chocolate; cook and stir over low heat until smooth. Cool. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Add eggs and sour cream; beat on low just until combined. Stir in chocolate mixture until smooth.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla; set aside. Spread chocolate batter into a greased 15 by 10 by 1-inch baking pan. Drop cream cheese mixture by tablespoonfuls over batter; cut through the batter with a knife to swirl. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

The bars were good but i have had better, They have a cakey consistency but lack the yummy softness that comes from the addition of the cream cheese. They didn't 'wow' me.

I made this recipe for a party and it was a huge hit! I did add some extra melted semi-sweet chocolate to the base recipe however because it tasted a little thin. That addition perfected it. I highly recommend.
