Easy Chocolate Cream Cheese Cake Recipe

A rich chocolate cake with a nutty cream cheese frosting.. The cake was moist & delicious! It’s a nice recipe and you will love it! Everyone raved that it was delicious without being too rich or too sweet. It was also very easy to prepare.

I think it really feel better to put the chocolate chips inside the cake. And its not really a cheese cake its just more of a chocolate cake with amazing cream cheese frosting:)
