Directions
Chocolate Cream Cheese Cake,This makes one of those luscious “tunnel” cakes.,This was the first time I made a tunnel cake where you could actually see the filling in the middle – every other time I tried to make one, the filling would just disappear into the batter. This tasted very good. I had some trouble with the baking – after the recommended time, I tested it and a lot of liquid batter came out on the toothpick, so I left it in for another 10 minutes. Then I tested again, and again it had batter on it, yet the sides of the cake were already drying out. So while the middle parts of the cake ended up okay eventually, the edges were close to burnt. The cheese filling was yummy. I sprayed the bundt pan really really well with cooking spray and the cake came out beautifully without a problem. The glaze ingredients don’t specify whether the chocolate squares are the 1 oz or 1/2 oz ones, so used the 1 oz squares. As soon as I put in just half of the confectioners sugar, it got all stiff like a dough that couldn’t be stirred and only kneaded. Obviously it wasn’t pourable that way, so I added a tablespoon of oil to thin it because I had no more margarine. Then I added the rest of the sugar and used milk to thin it instead of water, and it came out fantastic – the kids wanted to just eat it instead of letting me pour it on the cake! But it poured beautifully and set up nice and gooey and tasted delicious.,The flavor was good, but it was a bit dry around the edges. The filling was so thin that it just blended in with the rest of the cake. Followed the recipe except used regular chocolate chips instead of minis. Were they supposed to be melted?!? The recipe didn’t say.
