CHOCOLATE DRIZZLE CAKE

1 box chocolate cake mix
2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
1 Tbsp. oil
1/2 c. sugar
4 eggs
1 1/2 c. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 (8 oz.) container whipped topping
chocolate syrup

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Spray a 9x13x2 inch pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Pour all but 1 c. of the cake mix in a large mixing bowl. Set aside the remaining cup of mix. Add one egg and the oil to the cake mix in the bowl. Mix thoroughly. The mixture will be quite crumbly. Press into the bottom of the pan.

In the same bowl, blend the cream cheese and sugar, then add the other 3 eggs and the remaining cake mix. Beat at least 1 minute at medium speed. Add the milk and vanilla, and mix until smooth. Pour onto the crust.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Test for doneness. Cool completely in pan. When ready to serve, top individual serving pieces with a dollop of whipped topping, and drizzle generously with chocolate syrup. Serve immediately. Refrigerate any leftovers.
