Gooey Dark Chocolate Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

Hey all! Hope you are doing well. Today I am going to leave out all of the extraneous information and let this cake speak for itself.

This chocolate cake is ultra rich and decadently dense. It's almost like a brownie but better!
The whipped cream cheese frosting is the perfect sweet and light accompaniment.

Feel free to veganize this recipe by using applesauce instead of yogurt and any frosting of your choosing.
