Chocolate Cheesecake Brownies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Cheesecake
    1 egg
    8 ounces cream cheese, full fat
    2 ounces caster sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    Brownie
    4 ounces dark chocolate
    4 ounces unsalted butter
    5 ounces light muscovado sugar
    2 beaten eggs
    2 ounces plain flour
Preparation
    For the cheesecake: Beat the egg in a mixing bowl, then add the cream cheese, caster sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
    For the brownie: Melt the chocolate (better to use minimum of 70% cocoa solid) and butter together. Stir well and add the sugar.
    Gradually pour in the beaten egg, a little at a time, and beat well, until thoroughly combined.
    Gently stir in the flour.
    Spread 2/3 of the brownie mix over the base of a lined 8\" tin. Spread the cheesecake mixture on the top, then spoon on the remaining brownie mixture in heaps.
    Using a skewer, swirl the mixtures together.
    Bake at 160\u00b0C/325\u00b0F/gas 3 for 30-35 minutes or until just set in the centre. Leave to cool in the tin, and then cut into squares.
