Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting

"This is a nice way to make a regular cake a little more special! The richness of the cream cheese is a nice balance with the sweetness of the powdered sugar. The chocolate adds a nice twist to the regular cream cheese frosting recipe. This is from the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook and a family favorite."
