Tiramisu Brownies

Ingredients
  • 12 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1-1/3 cups plus 1/4 cup sugar, divided
  • 8 Eggland's Best Eggs
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 1/4 cup instant coffee granules or espresso powder
  • 2 cartons (8 ounces each) Mascarpone cheese
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking cocoa
Directions
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate. Stir until smooth; cool slightly. Beat in butter. Gradually beat in 1-1/3 cups sugar.

Add six eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Combine flour and coffee granules; add to chocolate mixture. Beat on low speed just until combined; set aside.

For filling, in a small bowl, beat the cheese, vanilla, remaining sugar and eggs until smooth.

Pour half of the chocolate batter into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Spread with filling. Top with remaining batter, spreading evenly to completely cover filling.

Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until center is almost set and brownies begin to pull away from sides of pan.

Cool on a wire rack. Dust with cocoa. Cut into squares. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 3 dozen.

A few adjustments have been made. Namely, use of less eggs. Only 6 were used. Also, I wanted more coffee flavor so I used more espresso powder than the listed amount.  Whipped cream topping is optional, but highly recommended.  And just like slutty brownies, these are very tasty.
