Tunnel Mixture:
1 (18-oz) pkg Devil's Food Cake Mix
3/4 cup cold water
1/4 cup oil
3 eggs
1 (4 oz) bar German Sweet Chocolate
1 TB milk
2 oz solid unsweetened chocolate
1/3 cup sugar
8 oz cream cheese
1/4 tsp vanilla
Tunnel Of Love Glaze:
2 oz unsweetened chocolate
4 TB butter
2 TB light corn syrup
1 TB hot water
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

Combine ingredients as listed, beating on high speed of electric mixer 6 mins or till smooth, thick & creamy. Set aside while you make "tunnel" mixture. Tunnel Mixture: Melt both chocolates with cream cheese over medium heat, stirring till smooth. Add milk little at a time & then sugar a little at a time, too. Beat on low speed of electric mixer till creamy, cooking on low 1 min. Set this aside. Grease 10" Bundt Pan with Crisco and pour cake batter carefully into pan. Make halo around tube portion of pan with chocolate mixture, applying it carefully to top of batter, to within 1" of outside edge of pan, but allowing it to touch tube portion of pan. Bake at 350F 55 to 60 mins in greased but uncoated Bundt pan, but bake it at 325F 55 mins if using a colored Teflon-lined Bundt Pan. Test cake for doneness by inserting paper-covered, wire trash-bag "twist" through cake. If it comes out clean of any wet batter, place cake pan on wire rack to cool for 1 hour till cool to touch. Invert onto platter. Drizzle with the Tunnel Of Love Glaze. Tunnel Of Love Glaze: In top of double boiler over simmering water, melt chocolate, butter, light corn syrup, hot water, stirring till smooth. Remove from heat & beat in powdered sugar till smooth. Drizzle this over slightly warm cake. Serves 8 to 10.
