Ingredients

Cheesecake Filling

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup caramel topping
  • 1 egg

Bar Base

Toppings

  • 20 Hershey’s Rolo® chocolates, unwrapped, quartered (about 3/4 cup)
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted pecans

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom of 13x9-inch pan with shortening or cooking spray.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and salt with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat in caramel sauce. On low speed, beat in 1 egg until blended. Set aside.
  • 3
    Make brownie batter as directed on box for cakelike brownies. Spread in pan. Spoon cheesecake filling by generous tablespoonfuls evenly onto batter. Cut through mixture several times with knife for marbled design.
  • 4
    Bake 30 to 34 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediately sprinkle with Toppings. Cool 30 minutes. Refrigerate uncovered 2 hours. Remove from refrigerator 15 minutes before serving. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    For best results, make sure Rolo® pieces remain separate when sprinkling on brownie so there is caramel in every piece!
  • tip 2
    To quickly soften cream cheese, remove from wrapper and place on microwavable plate; microwave uncovered on High about 15 seconds or just until softened.
  • tip 3
    To toast pecans, heat oven to 350°F. Spread nuts in ungreased shallow pan. Bake uncovered 6 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown.
  • tip 4
    Use a knife to drag back and forth through the brownie batter and cheesecake mixture, but not too much or the marbleized look will blur.
  • tip 5
    When cutting these Turtle Cheesecake Brownies, use a sharp knife and wipe clean after each cut.
