Marble Brownies

Basic brownie mixture:

1&1/2c. flour
1c. shortening (may use butter or margarine)
1t. salt
3/4c. cocoa
2t. corn syrup
2c. sugar
1t. vanilla
4 eggs
1/2c. chopped nuts (optional)
1-2t. baking powder

Cream cheese mixture (mix together separate from above ingredients):

8 oz. pkg. cream cheese
1/3c. sugar
1/2t. vanilla
1 egg

For brownie mixture:  In mixing bowl, beat eggs well.  Add sugar, shortening, and rest of ingredients, mixing each ingredient in well.  Beat on medium speed 4 min.  Mix ingredients for the cream cheese mixture separately.  Pour brownie mixture into greased 13x9-inch pan.  Then spoon little blobs of the cream cheese mixture all over brownie mixture and run a knife through them to create the marble look for the brownies.  Sprinkle with nuts and chocolate chips, if desired.  Bake 350℉ for 25-30 min. or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
