In a separate bowl, mix: 1/4 c oil, 1/2 c sugar, 1 tsp vanilla essence, and 1 egg, with wire whisk

Add in flour mixture into egg mixture, stir to combine and pour into a square mold

In a bowl, melt: 1/3 c semi sweet chocolate chips with 1 tbsp butter/margarine (30 seconds interval in microwave), let cool for 10 minutes

In a separate bowl, beat: 1 block of cream cheese and 3 tbsp butter until smooth, then beat in 3/4 c icing sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder and 1 tsp vanilla essence. Pour cooled chocolate and beat to combine

Pour mixture on top of base and chill at least 4 hours or overnight
