"This is a rich, decadent chocolate frosting. You can't taste the cream cheese, but it adds just the right touch to the chocolate flavor. Enough for a three layer or 11x17 sheet cake. For a two layer or 9x13 sheet cake, cut to 2 servings. For a single layer or 9x9 cake, but to 1 serving. Adapted from a magazine recipe."

Original is 3 servings

This was a perfect touch to a vanilla cake I made. The cream cheese adds a delightful flavor to the cake. We loved the addition of the nuts as well!
