Ingredients
- 15 ounces brownie mix (preferably low-calorie/light version)
- 0.5 cups unsweetened applesauce
- 0.25 cups water
- 3 large egg whites
- 8 ounces fat-free cream cheese
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar substitute (like Stevia or Splenda)
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, unsweetened applesauce, water, and 2 egg whites. Stir until the batter is well blended and set aside.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sugar substitute, vanilla extract, and the remaining egg white until smooth and creamy. This will form the cheesecake layer.
Step 4
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
Step 5
Dollop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the brownie batter. Using a butter knife or skewer, carefully swirl the cream cheese mixture into the brownie batter to create a marbled effect.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake).
Step 7
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan before slicing into 12 equal squares.
Step 8
Serve and enjoy your Hungry Girl Cheesecake Brownies!
