INGREDIENTS

  • CRUST:
  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • CENTER:
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • TOPPING:
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the cake mix, 1 egg and butter until well blended. The batter will be stiff. Crumble and press into the prepared pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over, and press them into the crust slightly.
  3. For the topping, beat the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, 3 eggs and vanilla in a medium bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Spread over the chocolate chip layer.
  4. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

I just made this for Easter. It was not a big hit. I hated the crust since I hate box cake mix. I had to bake it longer like the others said. Sorry it was not good.

YUMMMM!!! I made this the other day because I had all the ingredients on hand and it was delicious! It is very rich, but oh so good. My hubby and son loved it, I took a piece into work for a girl, and she loved it. Next time, I may add peanut butter chips to it also, and try to cut back on the 10x sugar, but I do know this is a keeper!

I followed the recipe as written except I used one 10 ounce bag of milk chocolate and peanut butter chips and I baked at 325 for 55 minutes. Yes, these are very, very rich and sweet but my family loved them. After cooling for about one hour these still required a fork to eat, but overnight they firmed up very nicely and could be cut into neat little bars. Next time I will make them the day before I plan to serve.
