rasp cheesecake brownies

chai ying's birthday was 2 weeks ago and i have decided to bake a cake for her
i wanted to try something different-something less cocolaty
and yummy all over.
I bought a fantastic book

delicious: sweet

i have tried a few recipes- and so far have yet to fail me.
so i found a raspberry cheesecake brownies- prefect. i feel like cheesecake and im still craving for brownies- plus not forgeting that its all about me and baking for a friends' birthday cake

Raspberry cheesecake brownies

200g dark choc-chopped
200g butter-soften
250g + 150g caster sugar
5 eggs
11g plain flour-sifted
400g cream cheese
1tsp vanilla extract
125g punnet raspberries

1. Preheat oven tp 170degress C. Grease a square pan.
2. Melt choc in a bran-marie until smooth then set aside to cool slightly
3. beat butter and 250g sugar till pale and thick
4. add 3 eggs. one at a time, beating well after each addition.
5. stir in the melted choc then fold in the flour
6. spread the mixture onto the pan.
7. in a saperate bowl, beat eggs, vanilla 150g sugar and 2 eggs till smooth. then spread over the base.
8. poke the raspberries on the top and bake for 40-45 mins. (i baked it a little longer which made the brownies a little crumbly)
9. Eat.

Somehow when i baked it didn't look and feel right. my base mixture was too hard to spead. my cheese mixture was lumpy. but it turn out great. so i didnt expect it to turn out so well. the chocolateness of the brownies just complimented the cheesy soft cheese but wait for it- wait till the raspberry bangs into your mouth. :)
I never did like baked cheesecake. always prefer a fresh fridged ones. and this cake reminds me of that. missed my oreo cheesecake- perhaps ill do one soon.
