Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 0.33 cup granulated sugar

Notes
Store cooled brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week. For make-ahead, freeze uncut brownies wrapped tightly for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature. Substitute Dutch-process cocoa for a richer flavor, or use gluten-free flour 1:1 for a gluten-free version. Serve slightly warmed with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar.
