Coconut Cream Cheese Brownies

3 eggs
1 cup melted butter
1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups sugar
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips

Filling:
2 packages (8 oz. / 227 g each) Cream cheese
2 tsp coconut extract
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tbsp milk
3/4 cup coconut dessert mix

In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, butter and vanilla. Combine dry ingredients; add to egg mixture and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. Set aside half for topping. Coat a 9 x 13” / 23 x 33 cm pan with Watkins Cooking Spray. Spread remaining batter into prepared pan.
In a small bowl, beat cream cheese, coconut extract and sugar until smooth. Add egg, milk and dessert mix, beating just until combined. Carefully spread filling over batter. Drop reserved batter by tablespoonfuls atop filling. Cut through batter with a knife to swirl if desired. Bake at 350°F / 180°C for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate until serving. Makes 3 dozen.
