This is excellent. I made my sweetened condensed milk from this site, it makes about 10oz. And I put the 2 TBSP. of cocoa, and used coffee for water, plus a capful and a half of vanilla. Will be making again.

I made this for my husband on Father's Day. He really enjoyed it. I used a dark chocolate cake and it worked great. It was a rich dessert, exactly the way he likes it.

The first time I made this, I followed the recipe and it was somewhat bland. The second time, I added 4 semi-sweet baking squares (melted) and brewed strong coffee to replace the water. The turnout was incredible and had a richer chocolate flavor.

Oh my. This is one of THE most excellent and easy cake recipes I've ever made. I think what makes it even better is the presentation and how impressive it is for very little effort. I made the recipe exactly as written and mine turned out perfectly baked at 50 minutes. Make sure you use a nonstick bundt pan, grease and flour it. I had no problem with mine sticking either. Just a hint...this is a heavy cake when it comes out of the pan. I put a piece of wax paper over my cooling rack and then placed it DIRECTLY on top of the bundt pan to turn it out. If you don't, it'll crack if you just let it fall out onto a rack. This is a wonderful recipe.

Very impressive looking dessert for something so simple, just let it cool really well before you turn it out AND make sure your bundt pan is properly greased/floured. I made no changes. I haven't decided if I'm going to add a glaze or not. Using my Kitchen Aid mixer for both portions of the recipe really helped. I agree with other reviewers that using a larger bundt pan is a must plus covering the cake with foil halfway through so the cheesecake portion dosen't burn. We all liked this, but we didn't love it. TIP: You can "flour" your pan with a bit of the cake mix to keep it the same color tone.

Excellent and easy. Would recommend to anyone for a quick yet impressive dessert. I used a carrot cake mix and added ground pecans to the cake. Delicious. Baked cake in a tube pan and topped with cream cheese icing.

This was good! I showed the recipe to my boyfriend and he decided he wanted it for his birthday, so I made it yesterday. I was going to add extra cocoa but forgot, so I added some chocolate chips to the cream cheese part. I used the Satiny Chocolate Glaze recipe on top. The chocolate chips from the cream cheese ribbon all sank to the bottom and since the glaze was right on top, you couldn't tell they were there. I will make this again, adding the cocoa to the cake mix and perhaps using a vanilla glaze.

I wish I could rate this a 4.5. It looked beautiful inside and out, but was somewhat lacking in flavor. I might try it with some of the suggestions from a reviewer below.

Very easy to make and I will make again. However, the cream cheese layer fell to the bottom and the batter was too much for the bundt pan. I did not use a glaze and it really did not need one. Very easy!

I made this recipe a couple of months ago, my family loved it. They said it was the best chocolate cake ever!!! I thought so also, I brought some to work and my coworkers raved about this and saying the same thing BEST EVER chocolate cake. Thanks again for the recipe, it is now in my FAVORITES list for taking to reunions, christmas parties, etc.

Since I'm not a very experienced baker, I followed the recipe exactly, using a dark chocolate cake mix. I made it for a co-worker's birthday and everyone loved it. They all commented on the moistness. (Personally, I thought it was good, but not to-die-for good as my co-workers did. Then again, I'm not a big sweets eater, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.) I sent the recipe to several people. I thought it was really cool how the cream cheese mixture was poured on last, but ended up on the bottom. Kinda fun. I topped with a glaze of powdered sugar dissolved in water, which looked beautiful. I'll keep this in my recipe box, and will probably make again, but it's nothing I think I will ever crave. It is a great conversation piece though, so I'll probably bring it out at large gatherings.

I made this for one of our Beach Club functions and everyone loved it. I did add the 2T of unsweetened cocoa & substituted strong brewed coffee for the water as suggested by another user. I used Baker's Joy cooking spray and the cake came out of the Bundt pan without any problems.

This cake was good, but make sure you have a large bundt pan as ours overflowed and was a mess. It was much better after a couple days in the cake keeper. I used regular chocolate fudge frosting I had in the refridgerator and spread it on while the cake was still hot, it worked perfect with no effort for the topping. It looks pretty and was moist.

I HATE this cake! I couldn't stop eating it and probably gained 2 pounds. Really, it was just wonderful. I frosted it with Sour Cream chocolate frosting, but had to to take some frosting off because it was a bit to rich. Be sure to keep this cake in the fridge and it tastes better the day after you bake it (and the next day...). Thanks for the Recipe!

I poured the cream cheese mixture over the top of the cake & it pretty much stayed there throughout the entire baking process instead of sinking to the bottom. Because of this, it took longer for the cake to fully cook and the cream cheese got lightly brown & not very pretty. I followed the recipe... not sure what went wrong.
