Base

Preheat oven to 170-180°c. Prepare a lamington tin with baking paper in the base and extending up the sides (this will make it easier to lift out the brownie when it cools)

Mix dark chocolate buttons and butter, 50°, speed 1, 5 minutes until melted and smooth

Add 200g sugar, vanilla, colour and eggs. Mix for 5 seconds, speed 4.

Add flour and salt. Mix for 5 seconds, speed 4 until flour is just incorporated.

Pour into prepared lamington tin and spread across base (then lick spatula, hiding in pantry to do so if you have small children watching who may want to share)

Cheesecake topping

Mix cream cheese, remaining sugar, egg and vanilla 1 minute speed 4

Spoon mixture onto top of base in 6 or so big dollops. Swirl cheesecake topping across the base with a knife or your spatula tip

Cook for 30 minutes or until cheesecake topping is set. Allow to cool in tin completely before removing
