Chocolate Cream Cheese

After the boring pistachio and the blackberry fail, I needed to make a really good cake. I was beginning to get a little down on my bundt baking skills. I figured I couldn't go wrong with chocolate and cream cheese!

The recipe said to pour the chocolate batter in the bundt pan first and then spoon the cream cheese mixture on top and it would sink to the bottom. I was able to pour the cream cheese mixture and it didn't sink. I started to worry I was going to have another failure on my hands! The cream cheese did finally sink a little while it was baking.

To my relief, this cake was yummy! I took it to work and everyone tried it (the same cannot be said for the two previous cakes). A couple of the guys (my husband included) thought it would be good with a frosting of some kind, but I don't think it needs any.

Overall, everyone seemed to really enjoy this cake. When I make this cake again I will pour the chocolate and cream cheese in layers to distribute the cream cheese throughout the cake.

Rating: 4.5 ("It would be a 5 with frosting.")
