I’ve actually had the recipe for this Chocolate Chip Cake for several years, I’ve just never gotten around to making it. I first had it at a Bunco night several years ago. I remember that I loved it and asked my friend for the recipe the very next day.
I am so glad I finally made this! We had some friends over for dessert and everyone loved it. It is very moist and tender. The cream cheese gives it a great flavor and texture, and the crunchy topping is so yummy.
It is actually a coffee cake recipe, but I think it is better served for dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Wouldn’t you agree?
