Im going to make This

I sure am! I'm Suzi HomeMaker! Master of the Apron and stove! Lord over all measuring cups! Watch as I take Nothing and make it into Something!

Just as soon as one of you tells me how to know if the cream cheese is an eight ounce package or not. Does it say so in the box? Do I need a conversion chart before I go into the store? Halp!


Ingredients
For brownie batter
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 ounce unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup all-purpose flour

For cheesecake batter
8 ounces cream cheese, well softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 large egg yolk
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

preparationMake brownie batter:
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan.

Heat butter and chocolate in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, whisking occasionally, just until melted. Remove from heat and whisk in sugar, eggs, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Whisk in flour until just combined and spread in baking pan.

Make cheesecake batter and bake brownies:
Whisk together cheesecake batter ingredients in a small bowl until smooth. Dollop over brownie batter, then swirl in with a knife or spatula.

Bake until edges are slightly puffed and center is just set, about 35 minutes.

Serve warm or at room temperature.

As far as I know, cream cheese only comes in two sizes. The big one is 8 oz. and the little one is 3 oz. But it should say how much is in it on the package.
