    List of Ingredients




    Cheesecake Layer:
    2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, at room temperature
    1/3 cup granulated sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 large egg, at room temperature
    1 bar (1.5 ounces) Godiva Dark Chocolate, coarsely chopped

    Chocolate Cake:
    1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 large eggs, at room temperature
    5 tablespoons butter, melted
    1 cup sour cream

    Recipe



    Make the cheesecake layer:

    Beat together cream cheese and sugar in bowl until smooth, using electric mixer at medium speed. Beat in vanilla extract and egg. Set aside.


    Place chocolate in microwave-safe cup. Microwave on medium (50% power) for 1 minute. Stir. Microwave 30 seconds more or until chocolate is softened. Stir until smooth and let cool.


    Make the chocolate cake:

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 8x2-inch square baking pan. Line bottom of the pan with parchment paper and butter paper.


    Mix flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large mixing bowl.


    Combine eggs, melted butter and sour cream and whisk until blended. Add to dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Spread batter into prepared pan.


    Spread cream cheese mixture over the chocolate batter. Drizzle with melted chocolate. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until top is set and golden and a cake tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out with only a few moist crumbs clinging to it.


    Cool in pan on wire rack. When the cake is completely cooled, cut into squares to serve
