Peanut Butter Cheesecake Brownies with Reeses Pieces

 I hope you are already intrigued by the title, My son had a birthday recently and requested brownies with Reeses Pieces in them. I was originally going to make this recipe, which is a very good brownie recipe, However, I found the peanut butter cheesecake brownie recipe on the box of Baker's chocolate and I knew I had to make it.

To make these brownies you will need:
4 ounces of unsweetened chocolate - broken into smaller pieces.
3/4 cup butter
2 1/2 cups of sugar (divided)
5 eggs (divided)
1 cup of flour
8-ounce package of cream cheese
1/2 cup peanut butter.
4 ounces of Reeses Pieces


Line a 13 x 9-inch pan with foil and grease with cooking spray,
Melt the chocolate and the butter. I did this in a large microwave-safe glass bowl to make the brownies. Mix in the flour, 2 cups of sugar, and 4 eggs. Fold in some of the Reeses Pieces.

In the meantime, mix the cream cheese, peanut butter, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1 egg.

Pour the brownie mix into the prepared pan. Dollop the peanut butter mixture on top of the brownie mixture. Swirl with a knife for a marbles effect.
 
Add Reeses Pieces on top and bake for about 20-30 minutes until done
