This one does a pretty good job for mounting a switch in a hollow wall and should work fine for a CMU wall. The expanding "wings" work well in securing the box into a hollow wall. To cut the hole I would use a hammer dill with a small bit (~1/4" should do) and drill a series of holes to cut the outline and knock out the hole and use a masonry chisel to clean up the hole.

Why can't you surface mount? There are a large number of low profile boxes that do the trick and save you some time if you could get away with surface mounting.
