Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease and flour two 9-inch-round cake pans.

Step 2

Combine flour, granulated sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt in large mixer bowl. Add milk, water, vegetable oil, eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract; blend until moistened. Beat for 2 minutes (batter will be thin). Pour into prepared pans. Sprinkle 1/3 cup morsels over each cake.

Step 3

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Step 4

Microwave remaining 1 1/3 cups morsels in small, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 1 minute; STIR. Morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10 to 15-second intervals, stirring just until morsels are melted. Beat cream cheese, melted morsels, remaining teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/8 teaspoon salt in small mixer bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in powdered sugar.
