  2. In another bowl, mix the brownie batter according to the package instructions, again using only half of the ingredients.
  3. Combine both mixing bowls into the baking pan, swirl them together a bit, and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30 minutes or until fully baked.
  4. Let the cake cool and gently poke some holes into it with a fork.
