Ingredients

8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted, plus 8 more tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted, plus additional butter, for greasing pan

1 (18.25-ounce) package chocolate cake mix

1 egg, plus 2 eggs

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened

3 to 4 tablespoons cocoa powder

1 (16-ounce) box powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup chopped nuts

Directions

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.
