How to Make Cream Cheese Sweet
To begin, combine flour, butter, and brown sugar in a large bowl.
Then, beat with an electric mixer at low speed until the butter is fully incorporated into the dry ingredients.
Place this mixture in an ungreased 33 x 23 x 5 cm pan, distributing it evenly.
Bake at 175 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes to form the base of the sweet.
Meanwhile, mix the creamy fudge chocolate frosting with the cream cheese until fully combined.
Add the eggs and beat until a smooth and homogeneous mixture is obtained.
Carefully spread the chocolate mixture over the hot, pre-baked crust.
Sprinkle sliced almonds over the surface to add texture and flavor.
Bake again at 175 degrees for 30 minutes or until the chocolate mixture is firm.
Allow the sweet to cool completely before handling.
Finally, cut into bars and store in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
