Peanut Butter Striped Chocolate Cake image

DELISH! A thick stripe of a cream cheese and peanut butter mixture runs through a regular chocolate cake. With a sprinkling of nuts on top, this is a cake that has an icing inside! I found the recipe in the April 8, 2002 Taste of Home magazine, but changed it slightly. I added an egg to the cake mixture (it didn't have one in the recipe), and I also omitted the salt from the cream cheese mixture. You can choose to keep it in if you like.
