The name says it all!!! These are always a hit! Not sure where I got the original recipe, have been making these for years.
Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted, plus 8 more tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted, plus additional butter, for greasing pan shopping list
- 1 (18.25-ounce) package chocolate cake mix shopping list
- 1 egg, plus 2 eggs shopping list
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened shopping list
- 3 to 4 tablespoons cocoa powder shopping list
- 1 (16-ounce) box powdered sugar shopping list
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract shopping list
- 1 cup chopped nuts shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Lightly grease a 13 by 9-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, 1 egg, and 1 stick melted butter, and stir until well blended.
- Pat mixture into prepared pan and set aside.
- In a stand mixer, or with a hand 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. Continue beating until ingredients are well mixed.
- Slowly add the remaining 1 stick of melted butter, and the vanilla, continuing to beat the mixture until smooth.
- Stir in nuts with a rubber spatula.
- Spread filling over cake mixture in pan.
- Bake for 40 to 50 minutes.
- 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.
