Butterscotch Swirl

3/4 cup butterscotch morsels

2 oz. cream cheese, room temperature

Instructions

Heat oven to 350°F. Line a 13x9x2-inch baking dish with aluminum foil. Coat with nonstick cooking spray. Stir together flour, salt and baking powder in a small bowl. Melt butter in a large bowl in the microwave oven at 100% power for about 90 seconds or in a large saucepan over low heat.

Off heat, stir in the chocolate and espresso powder until smooth. Stir in sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla until blended. Stir in flour mixture and brickle bits until combined. Scrape into prepared baking dish.

Prepare swirl:
Melt butterscotch morsels in a medium size bowl in the microwave following package directions or in the top of a double boiler over simmering water; stir until smooth. Stir in flour and cream cheese until blended. Scrape into plastic food storage bag, pushing mixture to one corner; snip off 1/4-inch from one corner. Squeeze cream cheese mixture in a decorative pattern over the top of the brownie mixture. Swirl with knife to blend mixtures in a marble pattern if desired. Bake in 350°F oven for 25 minutes or until center is just firm to touch. Cool brownie completely in pan on wire rack. Cut into 20 bars.
