cakeMix - Cheesecake Brownies

1 box brownie mix
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 Tablespoons butter, softened
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1, 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk,
...NOT evaporated milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups chocolate frosting, store bought

Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Coat a 9x13x2 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Prepare brownie mix to package directions.
Spread mixture into baking pan.
Beat with electricmixer, cream cheese, butter and cornstarch in
a large bowl until fluffy.
Gradually beat in condensed milk.
Add egg and vanilla and beat until smooth.
Pour cheesecake mixture evenly over brownie batter.
Bake about 45 minutes or until top is lightly browned.
Cool and spread chocolate frosting over the top evenly.
Cut into bars; store covered in refrigerator.
Makes about 3 dozen bars.

Note:
Another great icing is to take a 8 ounce tub of frozen whipped
topping, thawed, and mix with 12 ounces of milk chocolate chips.
Place mixture in microwave for about 2 minutes.
Remove from microwave and stir until well blended and creamy.
Microwaves vary, so you may need to microwave this a little longer,
but before you do that be sure to mix first because it may not need it.
