Can you imagine the decadence of eating chocolate cake with cheesecake inside it?! Well, that is exactly what you get with this recipe. And, it's an impressive dessert that's easy to make. The weight of the cheesecake batter sinks to the bottom of the Bundt pan. When sliced into, the chocolate cake and cheesecake layers have flipped. Drizzled with rich chocolate, it's a pretty decadent piece of cake. With the gloss of the glaze, it's beautifully presented as is. We decided to make it a little more impressive by decorating it with chocolate-covered strawberries. Your guests will be so surprised when you cut into this fantastic cake.
