Yesterday was my oldest daughter's birthday. She turned 9 years old and I know I've said this before but, man time sure flies! Since her birthday was in the middle of the week this year we decided to have a party with her friends this coming Saturday. I'll make cake then, most probably cupcakes, so I didn't want to make cake twice in the same week. But, I still wanted her to have a special birthday dessert.
I asked her what she would like and all she said was "Something chocolate!". That's my girl! Brownies came to mind, being an easy dessert and all, and when I searched my favorite sites these Cheesecake Brownies on David Lebovitz' blog caught my eye. Still an easy recipe but with a little something extra that really says "Birthday!".
These are deliciously chocolaty but not too sweet, just perfect for a small birthday dinner, or to perk up any ordinary weekday meal. The birthday girl was quite happy with her special dessert and so was everyone else who had a square, or two! Please visit David's blog for the recipe!

Your swirling is gorgeous! I tried to make cheesecake brownies, but they ended looking like big blogs of cream cheese.. no swirl

These look fabulous! And you daughter is so cute!
Love that swirl and your daughter is adorable!
Happy birthday to her!
She's so pretty and has such a sweet look - these brownies are certainly a great way to celebrate her birthday.
it took me awhile to fully appreciate the tanginess of cream cheese in brownies, so kudos to your gal for liking it at such a young age. happy birthday wishes to her!
What a beautiful girl and what delicious looking brownies! They're both keepers!

Happy happy birthday! Sorry I have been soooooo out of touch! I'm trying to get a bit caught up on my reading and just had to say hi! The brownies look great! I hope the party today was awesome - I'm sure the birthday girl didn't mind having two celebrations!
