Excellant! I also used Betty Crocker's Dark Chocolate Brownie mix and it was the perfect combination of sweetness and richness.

I could not believe something so easy could be so good. I used Duncan Hines Chocolate Brownies and followed the recipe. I took them to a Red Hat buffet today and they gobbled them up. The other poster was right they taste twice as good the second day.

mmm...you can't go wrong with these. It's like having cheesecake and brownies all at the same time.

I love this simple, delicious way to improve on a typical boxed brownie! I've made it several times and everyone really likes them. I recommend saving about 1/4 of the brownie batter, and drizzling it on top after drizzling the cheese mixture, and THEN swirling. This way some of the "cheesecake" winds up as a sort of "middle layer" of the brownie as opposed to just on top. I've found it to result in a prettier swirl and more appealing presentation as well. Can't go wrong with this one!

This brownies are awesome! I used Ghiradellis double chocolate brownies, the ones with the chocolate chips. The cheese mixture was a bit lumpy, but it was fine after it baked. Instead of swirling the cream cheese in, I just poured it on top of the brownie batter, so that each flavor was still distinct. I recomend using an 8x8 inch pan so that the cream cheese part is as thick as possible. It takes about 10 minutes longer to cook. These are so much better after they have been refridgerated, don't judge them until you have had one that is cold.

I used a homemade brownie recipe rather than a box mix, and added mini chocolate chips to the top. Turned out great, they taste terrific!

The best! Only thing I did different was add about a tsp of vanilla to the cream cheese mix. Always turn out perfect!

These were excellent. My family thought I had bought them from a restaurant! I did add a little flour, water, and vanilla extract to the cheesecake filling. I also served it with fresh raspberries. It was fabulous!

These are good and quick, however I still like the "from scratch" one I have previously used. Taking suggestions from other reviewers, I added 1 Tablespoon flour and 1 Tablespoon butter to the cream cheese mixture. And, because my husband likes coconut, I added 1/2 cup coconut to the cream mixture also. I forgot to just put 2/3 of the brownie mixture in first and then the cream cheese and then the rest of the brownie mix. I would suggest you do this as it is easier to swirl in the cream cheese mixture. I used an 11x7 glass dish. Baked at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. They were good and we expecially like the coconut in them.

I didn't use a mix; I made the Baker's chocolate one bowl brownies (recipe on the box of unsweetened baking chocolate.) Turned out chewy and delicious.

This recipe was a terrific way to make a prepared box brownie mix extra special. I normally hate to read reviews that give 5 stars after the reviewer made multiple changes, so with that said, I only made one change myself, out of pure necessity. As a result of using egg whites in another recipe earlier, I found out that I was one egg short after starting the recipe. Therefore, I used two eggs in the brownie part, and one (leftover) yolk plus a few TBSPs of milk along with the cream cheese for that layer. I layered half the brownie mixture, then the cream cheese, the the remaining brownie mixture, then swirled it all together as another reviewer suggested. It was the first dessert gone at our July 4th family reunion, and the whole gang wished I'd brought more! Thanks~

Very good and easy recipe for when you don't have alot of time, but want to add a little extra "pizazz" to your brownies. I used D. Hines dark choc. brownie mix., and an 8 x 11.5 x 2 in. glass pan- baked them for 42 minutes at 325 and they turned out quite nicely.

W*A*R*N*I*N*G - These brownies are highly addictive. I was very pleased with this recipe and made only a slight change - I added some vanilla to the cheesecake mixture. I do have a tip though, B. Crocker's dark chocolate brownies are the best complement to the cheesecake. Take this from a person who makes brownies almost daily. Really.

These were good, not outstanding. I was impatient and microwaved the cream cheese to soften- DON'T do this, it makes the cream cheese layer weird and spongy.

This is a great way to jazz up regular brownies. I wanted to try this recipe to see what my husband thought-he loved them. I'll make this for years to come.
