Place the chocolate and butter in a large glass bowl. Microwave on high, checking and stirring often until the butter and chocolate are melted.
Add 2 cups sugar and beat until blended.
Add the vanilla and 2 eggs. Beat until blended then add 2 more eggs. Beat until blended.
Add 1 cup flour and the baking powder. Beat until well blended and smooth.
Pour the batter into a greased 9”x13” baking pan.
Clean the bowl if desired then add the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 egg and 1/4 cup flour. Beat until well blended.
Spoon cheese mixture onto the batter. Take a knife and swirl the mixture into the batter creating a marble effect. Sprinkle on the pecans if desired.
Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with chocolate crumbs on it. Be careful not to over bake!
Let cool before slicing into squares and enjoying!
