Double Chocolate Ooey Gooey Butter Cake
Butter, for greasing pan, plus 16 tablespoons (2 sticks) butter, melted, divided
1 (18.25-ounce) package chocolate cake mix
3 eggs, divided
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3 to 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 (16-ounce) box powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped nuts
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a 13 by 9-inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, 1 egg, and 8 tablespoons (1 stick) melted butter, and stir until well blended. Pat mixture into prepared pan and set aside. In a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the remaining 2 eggs, and the cocoa powder. Lower the speed of the mixer, and add the powdered sugar. Continue beating until ingredients are well mixed. Slowly add the remaining 8 tablespoons (1 stick) of melted butter, and the vanilla, continuing to beat the mixture until smooth. Stir in nuts with a rubber spatula. Spread filling over cake mixture in pan.
Bake for 40 to 50 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the cake; the center should still be a little gooey when finished baking. Let cake partially cool on a wire rack before cutting into pieces.

i always throw an extra egg in every cake i make. i use a lil more oil and less water too than the recipe calls for.

then again...i dont think i know what a recipe is...i just make it however.

what I do is just get a devils food chocolate cake mix, 1 box instant chocolate pudding....
mix as directed on the cake box....and bake in a bundt cake pan...it really is moist and great chocolate flavor...I'm sure if you wish you could bake in layer's...use whatever icing you desire...this has never failed me yet...enjoy

Would like to have a really good moist chocolate cake recipe.
