How To Make black forest brownies

  • Step 1
    Heat oven to 350F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 13x9 glass cake pan.
  • Step 2
    Beat together until smooth: the cream cheese, the egg and 3 tbsp. of "sauce" from the pie filling.
  • Step 3
    Prepare brownie batter per package directions.
  • Step 4
    Fold the remaining cherry pie filling into the batter until well distributed. Spread evenly in prepared pan.
  • Step 5
    Drop cream cheese mixture by large spoonfuls onto the brownies. Use a butter knife to swirl the cream cheese through the batter, creating a marble effect.
  • Step 6
    Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Step 7
    Allow to cool in pan, then refrigerate to chill completely before slicing.
