It's Hump Day!! Let's have something Sweet!

To get you over the 'hump' in the week, we decided to make Wednesday Dessert Day! This recipe is perfect for football season.....especially if you're an Auburn Tiger!! These Tiger Brownies will fill your belly and show team spirit at the same time! Enjoy!

Tiger Brownies
Filling:
2 packages(3oz each) of cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
8 drops of red food color
8 drops of yellow food color
1 egg
Brownies: 1 box of fudge brownie mix
½ cup of vegetable oil
¼ cup of water
2 eggs- Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with shortening. In small bowl with electric mixer, beat filling ingredients on medium speed until smooth; set aside. In large bowl, stir brownie ingredients with spoon until well blended. Spread half of brownie batter in pan. Spoon filling mixture over brownie batter; gently spread to cover. Top with spoonfuls of remaining brownie batter. To marble, pull knife through batter in wide curves; turn pan and repeat. Bake 26 to 30 minutes or until set. Cool 1 hour or until completely cooled. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until set. With hot, wet knife, cut into bars. Store in refrigerator.

So if you're not an Auburn fan....you can make the cream cheese mixture whatever color you want.....but I'm pretty positive the orange looks best!! HeeHee! War Eagle!
