Description

Ingredients

• 2 sticks (226g) butter, melted
• 1 package chocolate cake mix
• 3 eggs (one egg for bottom cake layer THEN two eggs for filling layer)
• 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup (31g) cocoa powder
• 16 ounces confectioners sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

• Heat oven to 350 degrees (325 convection) and prepare and 9-inch by 3inch round cake pan OR 9x13 dish. (I have heard a bundt works as well!)
• Combine the cake mix, 1 egg (you will use the other two eggs elsewhere), and 1 stick melted butter (1/2 cup or 113g), and stir until well blended.
• Pat the mixture into prepared pan and set aside.
• In a stand mixer on medium speed (or using a hand-held mixer), beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the remaining 2 eggs and the cocoa powder.
• Lower the speed of the mixer and add the powdered sugar. Slowly add the remaining 1 stick (1/2 cup) of melted butter. Add vanilla and continue to beat the mixture until smooth.
• Pour filling over cake mixture in pan. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes. (check at 30 minutes with 9x13) Be careful not to overcook the cake; the center should still be a little gooey when finished baking. Let cake partially cool on a wire rack before cutting into pieces.
