Now if you mixed 8 oz of cream cheese with a beaten egg and 1/4 cup of
sugar and spooned it over and swirled it into your brownie batter you
would have something divine.

I'll consider it ‹ thanks much for the measures!! I've never done it
because I wasn't sure about an egg and how much sugar. !!

If you google "cream cheese swirl brownies" you will get dozens of
variations of this recipe. Mine calls for more cheese than most
but cream cheese is my weakness. A tsp of vanilla is also a good
addition plus a pinch of salt.

You mean something like this? We love these and usually have to double
the recipe.

Chocolate Cream cheese Brownies

1 pkg. (4 oz.) German sweet chocolate
3 tbsp. butter
2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. almond extract
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Filling:

2 tbsp. butter
1 pkg. (3 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. vanilla

In saucepan, melt chocolate and butter over low heat, stirring
frequently. Set aside. In a bowl, beat the eggs; add sugar and beat
until thick. Add flour, salt and baking powder to egg mixture and mix
well. Add the melted chocolate, vanilla and almond extracts and nuts.
Pour half the batter into a greased 8 inch square pan; set aside. For
filling, beat butter and cream cheese in a mixing bowl until light.
Gradually add sugar, beating until fluffy. Blend in egg, flour and
vanilla; mix well and spread over batter in pan. Dollop remaining batter
over filling. With a knife, cut through batter to create a marbled
effect. Bake at 350º 35 to 40 minutes, or until tests done. Cool.
Store in the refrigerator. Makes about 2 doz. squares.
