Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, mix melted butter and 1 cup sugar until combined. Add 2 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and red food coloring; mix well.
Sift in the cocoa powder, salt, and vinegar. Mix until smooth, then fold in the flour until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, reserving about 1/4 cup for topping.
In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 egg, and 1/2 tsp vanilla until smooth.
Drop spoonfuls of the cheesecake mixture over the brownie batter in the pan. Use a knife to swirl the layers together gently.
Dollop the reserved brownie batter on top and swirl lightly again for a marbled effect.
Bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
Cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
