Ingredients
  

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 1 package cream cheese softened
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 stick margarine softened
  • 1 container Cool Whip or whipped topping
  • 1 container chocolate icing
  • 1 tablespoon milk for icing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven according to the chocolate cake mix instructions. Prepare the batter as directed and bake in a 9×13-inch pan for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice the cake horizontally in half.
  • In a large bowl, blend cream cheese, powdered sugar, and softened margarine with an electric mixer until smooth. Gently fold in the Cool Whip until fully combined. Spread the creamy filling evenly over the bottom half of the cake layer in the pan.
  • Place the top half of the cake over the filling. Press gently to adhere and form the top layer.
  • In a small bowl, combine the chocolate icing with 1 tablespoon of milk for a smoother texture. Spread the icing evenly over the top layer of the cake.
  • Refrigerate the assembled cake for at least 1 hour to set. Slice and serve chilled for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

For added flair, sprinkle chocolate shavings or drizzle melted chocolate over the top before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
