Instructions
Prepare brownie mix according to package directions. Spread batter into greased or parchment lined 8x8 pan.
In large bowl, combine softened cream cheese, egg, vanilla, and sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy with electric mixer.
Divide cream cheese mixture into three bowls. Tint two of the bowls the different shades of blue (one shade per bowl) and leave one white.
Using a spoon, put dollops of each color all over top of brownies (see post for photos). Take a butter knife and gently swirl icing until blended and looking like tie dye.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, or until set in the center. Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.
Can also do this in muffin papers to make individual brownies. Just put a dollop of each color cheese cake mixture on top of brownie batter in each muffin cup. Bake approximately 20- 25 minutes, or until set in center.
