Wow!!! This is soooo pretty when served. I love how the white bottom become the top. I would have liked a more chocolaty taste but everyone else thought it was very good.

This is an amazing recipe - one would never know it involved a box hehe. I use Betty Crocker Moist cake in chocolate fudge flavor, which is a very dark color and tastes wonderful. I just sprinkle powdered sugar on top I feel a glaze would be too much.

Very good, moist, so good with ice cold milk. I put about a cup of mini chocolate chips in the cream cheese batter before pouring it on the cake batter. Yummmmmmmm!!!

Very good cake. I made it for a going-away party at work. BUT did anyone else have trouble with the filling sticking to the bottom of the pan? I greased it very well with solid Crisco, but almost the whole layer of filling stuck. I added it back on to the cake as best I could, but I'm glad frosting can cover a multitude of sins. May try again because it is a simple recipe and impressive for a special occasion.

Love, love, LOVE this recipe - and it's so pretty! I've made this couple of times for the office and it's been a big hit. I top it with the Satiny Chocolate Glaze from this same website and that just gives it a little extra something. Thanks so much for sharing it Jo.

I made this cake exactly as the recipe stated and it turned out to be the absolute best thing I have ever made. My husband told me not to make it again soon. He ate most of it himself.

I followed the reviews and reserved part of the chocolate cake batter, but also reserved a little of the filling and I made marbled cupcakes with the excess. It made six small cupcakes. It was really easy to make, and I decorated it with a thin powdered sugar and milk glaze to dress it up a bit. Beautiful and the cupcakes are tasty; should be a hit at Easter :)

I made this for an extended family dinner, and everyone loved it. I put the cake pan on a cookie sheet to prevent any spill-over, and I'm glad I did that as it really rose during baking. I added a chocolate glaze because part of the cake stuck to the pan when I turned it out - my problem as my bundt pan has a tendency to do that.

AMAZING CAKE! Every time I take this cake people are impressed with its appearance and taste. They wonder how I did it! Get a cake mix with pudding it he batter for extra taste. Excellent choice!

I liked it okay, it looked pretty and tasted pretty good. If you are looking for more chocolate and cheesecake flavor, you should do the chocolate-cheesecake brownies. This cake was mild on both flavors, which many may like. I think so much sweetened condensed milk muted the cheesecake flavor as well.

This was a very good cake. My only problem was too much batter for my bundt pan. What a mess in my oven! Next time, I will take some of the chocolate cake mix batter out (for cupcakes) to avoid the mess.

The cake was very easy to do but I will probably not make again. My reason is b/c I really prefer cakes from scratch and not box mix and had hoped b/c this had the cream cheese mixture it would give it that extra flavor. The taste was not bad and the kids did gobble it all up....I guess for me it's just personal preferance.
