Cream Cheese & Brownies?!

YES, IT IS DELICIOUS.
I've recently made this discovery. If you haven't tried this, I know it sounds a bit odd, but trust me, it is wonderful. And, okay, I'm having some camera issues, so I'm going to try to find a picture of these on the internet and see if I can't post that for your viewing pleasures.

But, here's the recipe:

Cream Cheese Topping for Brownies

Ingredients:
One 8 oz. package cream cheese (softened)
1/2 cup of regular white sugar
1 egg

Directions:
So you've already made your brownies, rather they were boxed or home-made, it doesn't really make a difference, now all you have to do is combine the above ingredients in a bowl and mix them well either by hand or with an electric mixer. Then drop the creamy mixture in table-spoon-full globs all over the brownie mix that you've spread in your pan. Next you can either take that same spoon, or a butter knife, or whatever utensil you prefer and stir it in a LITTLE bit. Just so it looks pretty. :)

Fairly easy, no? Anyway, this tastes great! I'm making them again at my grandma's tomorrow.
Oh, also, I'm not great on the whole home made brownies thing, so I usually just use boxed, but I found the following recipe and it was titles "Easy Brownies." If you want to give it a try, by all means. Here it is, send me some feedback if you do it.
