List of Ingredients




6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
12 tbsp. (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
3/4 cup plus 1 tbsp. all purpose flour
pinch of salt
8 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
1 large egg yolk
vegetable oil cooking spray
1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp. confectioners sugar
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup mashed very ripe banana ( 1 medium banana)


Recipe




















1. Heat oven to 350°. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with vegetable-oil spray. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil; remove from heat. Place both chocolates in a heat-proof bowl; set over saucepan. Stir occasionally until completely melted.

2. Meanwhile, combine butter and granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat on medium-low speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 3 eggs; beat to combine. Scrape sides of bowl; add chocolate, 3/4 cup flour, and salt. Mix until just combined, 15 to 20 seconds, scraping sides of bowl once.

3. In a food processor, process cream cheese until smooth and creamy, 25 to 30 seconds. Scrape down sides of bowl using a rubber spatula; add egg yolk, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, remaining tablespoon flour, and remaining egg. Process until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl; fold in mashed banana using a rubber spatula.

4. Spread chocolate batter into prepared pan. Using a rubber spatula, make three trenches in batter, and fill with cream-cheese batter. To marble the top, run the tip of a knife back and forth across the two batters.

5. Bake until set, about 40 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes before cutting.
