EatingWell: Boo-tiful brownies for Halloween
Reserve 1/3 cup of the brownie batter for the topping. Fold chocolate chips into the remaining batter and scrape into the prepared pan, making sure to spread it all the way to the corners. Spread the cheesecake batter over the brownie layer to cover evenly.
Drop the reserved brownie batter by generous teaspoonfuls over the top and draw a dull knife through the top of the two batters to create a swirl design.
Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack. When cool, use the foil as handles to lift the brownies from the pan before cutting into squares.
