📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 350.
2
Set the raspberries aside (especially if they’re frozen) to thaw at room temperature while you assemble everything else.
raspberries (I used frozen), lightly mashed1 cup
3
Make a make-shift double boiler by placing a glass bowl over a saucepan with simmering water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t actually touch the water. Melt the butter and chocolate, stirring so the chocolate doesn’t burn on the bottom. When the chocolate is melted, remove from heat. Stir in the milk. Let the mixture cool to almost room temperature before adding the eggs (unless you’re not adding the eggs, then proceed).
butter (I use vegan Earth Balance butter)5 tablespoonsroom-temperature butter1 tablespoon
4
In a separate bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
5
Into the chocolate bowl, stir in the maple syrup and vanilla. Stir in (already beaten) eggs. Then add in the dry mixture, stirring until just combined.

Make the raspberry cheese swirl: Whisk (strongly by hand or with a mixer) together the ingredients for the cheese layer – cream cheese, goat cheese, butter, maple syrup, and vanilla - until smooth. As I mentioned above, I stirred this up without the goat cheese, divided it in half, and only added goat cheese to one half.

7
Into an 8×8 greased pan (or 2 smaller pans – I used two 5×7 pans), pour the brownie batter. Spoon the cheese mixture on top (doesn’t have to be an even layer). Gently crush the raspberries with your hands and add them (with juice) on top of the cheese layer. Take a knife and swirl the layers in the pan.
