German Marbled Chocolate Cake image

This wonderful cake tastes like a chocolate brownie mixed with vanilla cheesecake. The blending of the rich fragrant vanilla and the mellow German chocolate is perfect and creates a creamy treat that melts in your mouth. This cake is well worth the extra effort.
