Chocolate "Cheese Cake"

This recipe was my aunt Betty Motley's recipe. I totally forgot to take pictures of what it turned out like, but it was beautiful and delicious! I do have a couple that my mom sent me (this was her Mother's Day request), because they loved it so much! So, you get to see this lovely dessert with my even lovelier grandma!
