Ingredients :

1/2  cup  unsalted butter ; melted
   1  cup  white sugar
1/4  cup  cocoa powder
   1  oz.   red food colouring
   1  tsp   vanilla extract
   1  tsp   vinegar
1/4  tsp   salt
   2  large  eggs ; slightly beaten
3/4  cup  all-purpose flour
   1  8 oz.  cream cheese (1 package)
1/4  cup  white sugar
   1  large  egg
1/4  tsp  vanilla extract


Method :

1.   Preheat oven to 350'F/175'C.  Grease an 8 x 8 inch baking pan.  Set aside.

2.   Whisk melted butter with 1 cup sugar in a mixing bowl ; stir in cocoa powder, red food colouring, 1 tsp vanilla extract, vinegar and salt into butter mixture one at a time ; mixing well after each addition to avoid lumps.  Stir in 2 eggs into mixture until thoroughly combined.

3.   Stir flour into cocoa mixture just until combined ; set aside 1/4 cup batter.  Pour remaining batter into the prepared baking dish.

4.   Cheese Topping :  Beat cream cheese until light and fluffy ; beat in 1/4 cup white sugar, 1 egg and 1/4 tsp vanilla extract into cream cheese until very well blended and only small lumps remain, 3 to 4 minutes.

5.   Spoon cream cheese mixture in dollops over the batter in pan ; gently smooth tops of dollops even with batter using a offset spatula. DO NOT OVERMIX.  Drizzle reserved 1/4 cup of chocolate batter over the dollops of cream cheese mixture.  Drag a knife or skewer through the batter and cream cheese mixture to create swirls.

6.   Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until done.
