Contributed By: Terry Borden

Ingredients:

3 large Eggs, divided use
6 tablespoons reduced-fat butter, softened
1 cup sugar, divided
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup baking cocoa
1 package (8 ounces) reduced-fat cream cheese

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Separate two eggs, putting each white in a separate bowl (discard yolks or save for another use); set aside. In a small bowl,
beat butter and 3/4 cup sugar until crumbly. Beat in the whole egg, one egg white and vanilla until well combined. Combine flour and cocoa; gradually add
to egg mixture until blended. Pour into a 9-in. square baking pan coated with cooking spray; set aside.
2. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and remaining sugar until smooth. Beat in the second egg white. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls over the batter; cut
through batter with a knife to swirl.
3. Bake 25-30 minutes or until set and edges pull away from sides of pan. Cool on a wire rack.
