How to Make Neiman Marcus Cake Chocolate Version

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix, 3 large eggs, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined.
  3. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat together 8 oz cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup (100g) powdered sugar, and 1 large egg until smooth and creamy.
  5. Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chocolate cake batter.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cool completely before serving. Garnish with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
