Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
Make Brownie Batter

Assemble and Bake
  1. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  2. Dollop the cream cheese mixture on top and swirl it with a knife to create marbled patterns.
  3. Drizzle hot fudge sauce over the top and sprinkle with chocolate chips.

  5. Cool before cutting into squares and top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings if desired.

Notes

Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. For freezing, wrap each piece in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-safe bag for up to three months.
