Double Fudge
Cream Cheese Brownies
   

These brownies are really rich and gooey, especially if you resist the temptation to cook them until a tester comes out clean. These brownies work much better if you line the pan with foil and grease that. Then let the brownies set up over night and cut them the next day. It's much easier getting them out of the pan and cutting them to lift them out with the foil, set them out on the counter, then peel down the foil.
