Courses: Dessert
Serves: 24 people

Recipe Ingredients

8 tablespoons 120mlButter - (1 stick) - melted, plus
8 tablespoons 120mlButter - (1 stick) - melted, plus
  Additional butter - for greasing pan
1   Chocolate cake mix - (18.25 oz)
3   Eggs
1   Cream cheese - (8 oz) - softened
3 tablespoons 45mlCocoa powder - (to 4)
1   Box powdered sugar - (16 oz)
1 teaspoon 5mlVanilla extract
1 cup 146g / 5.1ozChopped nuts

Recipe Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 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.

This recipe yields 20 to 24 servings.
