Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
  5. Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan. Spread the PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese over the batter, leaving a small border around the edge. Spoon the remaining batter over the cream cheese, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let it cool completely.
  7. In a small saucepan, melt the semisweet chocolate over low heat. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cake.
  8. In a small bowl, mix together powdered sugar and milk to make the glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the cake.
  9. Serve and enjoy!
