Cheesecake Marbled Brownies

I bake these in muffin tins. A) because I love brownie crust B) I really never eat a small brownie.... At least this way I can limit myself to one.
If you would like to bake them in a 9x13 pan, just line it with parchment paper and drop cheesecake marble on top of brownie batter in the pan. Then use a butter knife to marble the brownies.
For The Cheesecake Marble:
8 ounces cream cheese, room temp
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
For The Brownie:
1/3 cup cocoa powder
2 ounces dark chocolate, finely chopped
1/2 cup hot coffee
4 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 eggs
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 3/4 cup flour
Oven: 350
Spray 2 muffin tin pans with non stick spray, then coat with a thin layer of flour.
Whisk all ingredients for the cheesecake marble and transfer to a squeeze bottle if you have one. If you don't have one, you can use a pastry bag or a ziplock with a corner cut off.
In a large bowl, add cocoa powder and chocolate, pour hot coffee over and let sit for 30 seconds then whisk until chocolate is melted.
Whisk in all of the remaining ingredients except the flour.
Add the flour and mix with a spatula until just combined.
With a 2 ounce ladle or cookie scoop, divide brownie batter into pans.
Using the squeeze bottle, squeeze cheesecake batter into middle of brownies and swirl a little on top.
Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
Allow to cool for a half an hour in the pans before attempting to remove them.
