Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 stick butter, melted
  • 1 egg

Filling

  • 1 8 ounce cream cheese room temperature
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 stick butter, melted
  • 4 cups confectioners sugar
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13 x 9 baking dish with non-stick spray.
  • Crust: Place the cake mix, butter, and egg in a large mixing bowl. Blend on low for 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix into the batter. The batter should begin to form a ball. Using your fingers, pat the batter evenly over the bottom of the baking dish. Set aside.
  • Filling: In the same mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until fluffy. Add eggs, vanilla, and melted butter. Beat for 1 minute. Add the confectioners sugar a little at a time and beat until all of the sugar is mixed well. Set aside.
  • In a saucepan over low heat melt chocolate. Measure out 1 cup of the cream cheese filling and stir into the melted chocolate. Stir well. Set aside.
  • Pour the remaining filling over the crust, making sure to cover the entire surface. Using a spoon, drop the chocolate batter over the top of the filling. Using a knife, swirl the two batters together, making a marbled effect. Be careful not to cut through the crust.
  • Bake the cake for about 45 minutes or until it is browned, and the center still jiggles when you shake it slightly. Remove from the oven and cool about 20-30 minutes. Cut into bars.
  • Serve warm or cold from the refrigerator. To store: Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to a week. It does not last that long at my house. :) Note: The cake will crack as it bakes. This is normal.
