CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE POUND CAKE
This is a recipe from Paula Deen that appeared on bakeorbreak.com when I was searching for a chocolate cake. I loved the idea of a chocolate cake with cream cheese in the batter! I substituted half the butter with vegetable oil just because I was running out of butter but it still turned out very rich. My 2 and 4 yr old boys were fighting over the crumbs it was so good!

CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE POUND CAKE
My son loves old fashioned pound cake with its crispy top and dense interior, but he said the only thing he could think of that might make it better was if it could be chocolate. So I tweaked my original cream cheese pound cake to satisfy his chocolate desire. We love it and we hope you do too!

Steps:
- 1. A stand mixer works best for this recipe for me. Cream together the butter and cream cheese on high until almost white. Gradually add sugar. Gradually add the cocoa. Add the dash of cinnamon. Never stop the mixer if possible. Add the eggs one at a time incorporating each completely before adding the next. Add the vanilla. Add the salt.
- 2. Gradually add the flour one cup at a time incorporating each completely. Turn the mixer on high and mix for at least another minute.
- 3. Pour the cake batter into a well greased and floured tube pan. May use powdered sugar instead of flour if you like. This will add to the crispness of the sides. Place cake in a cold oven and bake at 315 degrees for approximately 2 hours. I usually check the readiness with a knife at 1 hour 45 minutes. Allow to stand in the pan about 20 minutes before turning out. Then allow another 20 minutes before cutting to serve.
- 4. Can place on a beautiful cake plate and surround with frosted grapes or chocolate dipped strawberries. This cake is wonderful alone or served with ice cream or fruit or both! Whipped cream is nice too!

Steps:
- 1. Place the cake mix, cream cheese, water, oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a large bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more.
- 2. Pour batter into greased and floured 10 inch tube pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 58 to 62 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly pressed with your finger. Remove pan from oven and place it on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Invert cake onto a rack and invert it onto another rack so that it is the large side up. Allow to cool for 20 more minutes.
Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cake batter to come together smoothly and evenly.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will incorporate air into the batter, which will make the cake lighter and more tender.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Be sure to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour will make the cake dry and dense.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can toughen the cake.
- Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Underbaking will result in a gooey cake, while overbaking will result in a dry cake.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
