Prepare Batter

In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, butter and vanilla. Combine dry ingredients; add to egg mixture and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. Set aside 1 cup for topping. Spread remaining batter into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan.

Prepare Filling

In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, peanut butter and sugar until smooth. Add egg and milk, beating on low just until combined. Carefully spread over batter.

Assemble and Bake

Drop reserved batter by tablespoonfuls over filling. Cut through batter with a knife to swirl. Bake at 350°F for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack before cutting. Refrigerate until serving.
