Marbled Cheesecake Brownie Bites

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

To make brownie batter, heat butter in the top pan of a double boiler. When butter is melted, whisk in chocolate until melted, then add in the sugar. Remove from heat and allow to cool for about 3 minutes before whisking in egg, flour, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract.

Spray a mini muffin pan generously with baking spray. Spoon brownie batter into each cup, filling each halfway. Set aside.

To make cheesecake batter, use a handheld mixer to combine all ingredients in a small bowl.

Spoon about 1 teaspoon cheesecake batter onto the top of each cup of brownie batter. Use a toothpick to swirl the batters together.

Bake for 13-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a brownie bite comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before gently removing and serving.

Allow bites to cool to room temperature before storing in an airtight container.
