Equipment

Ingredients

  • 15.25 ounces chocolate cake mix (I used devil's food)

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon cocoa

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Spray a 9x13" pan with cooking spray.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the chocolate cake mix, melted butter, and one egg until it forms a soft dough. Press this mixture into the bottom of the 9x13" pan.

  • Bake for 40-50 minutes, until the tops and edges start to crack and turn a more golden brown.
