4. In another large bowl, beat together the ingredients for the cream cheese layer. Add your food colouring as desired and beat again.
5. Grease a cake pan with butter or coconut oil and then use a spatula to scrape the brownie mixture into the pan, reserving a few tablespoons of the brownie mixture for topping. 
6. Use your spatula to smooth the brownie batter into place and then pour your cream cheese mixture on top.
7. Gently smooth your cream cheese mixture over the brownie mixture.
8. Next drop spoonfuls of the brownie batter on top and swirl into the cream cheese batter(this doesn’t have to be perfect!)
9. Bake at 350* for roughly 25min or until a toothpick comes out clean and the top layer forms small cracks/is set.
10. Let cool on a wire rack for 5-10min and then place in the fridge for AT LEAST an hour before slicing and serving.
