The best chocolate cake I've ever found is on epicurious.com. Search for "double chocolate layer cake." I think it's the most popular recipe on the site. It has melted chocolate, cocoa, and coffee in the layers, and is covered with a chocolate ganache.

That chocolate cheese cake filling sounds really good! Can you tell us how you make it?

Grandma...I think I got it from allrecipes or recipezaar. It is one you bake..not a no-bake recipe. Just line you pan with parchment or waxed paper for easy removal.

Truffle filling (can also be made with white chocolate or dark chocolate. Great to add LoRann flavors to, like creme de menthe)- MacsMom
16 oz cream cheese, softened
4 c milk chocolate chips (2 bags)
1/3 c butter
1-1/2 t vanilla
2 c PS, sifted
*Beat the cream cheese. Melt the chocolate and butter together in microwave; beat into cream cheese. Add vanilla and PS; beat well. It thickens as it cools (you may to pop it in the fridge for a while). You can soften it for a few seconds in the microwave if it gets too thick to spread.

Oh, OK. So you actually bake the cheese cake first and then use it as a filling between the layers?

ddaigle:

Did you just use the filling, or do you actually make the cheesecake, crust and all, and put it between the cake layers?

I actually baked the cheesecake..but with no crust. Let it setup/cool overnight, then lift it out and make it an actual 2" layer. It was a little difficult to make a layer, but no one sees the cracks or "oops".

In this Junior's cookbook: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Juniors-Cheesecake-Cookbook/Alan-Rosen/e/9781561588800

there's a chapter devoted to the "skyscraper" style, which is just what ddaigle described.
There are recipes for carrot cake, red velvet, chocolate, etc. all with a layer of their famous NY cheesecake in the center.
