List of Ingredients

1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
2 1/3 cup sugar, divided
3 eggs
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 squares (1 1/2 oz.) unsweetened baking chocolate
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup (6 oz.) semisweet chocolate chips



Recipe

In a small mixing bowl, beam cream cheese and 1/3 cups sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 egg; set aside. In a large saucepan, bring water, butter, and chocolate to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Add flour and remaining sugar; mix well. Stir in sour cream, baking soda, salt and remaining eggs until smooth. Pour into a greased and floured 15 inch x 10 inch x 1 inch baking pan. Dollop cream cheese mixture over top; with a knife, cut through batter to create a marbeled effect. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake at 375 deg. for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool before cutting.
