Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Bars

I cut this out of a box of cake mix. I must've intended to make it. Alas, you know what they say about the road to hell. We're not that big into desserts (especially if they're not cookies), but I'll try it and report back (or delete it if it's gross). How's that for a sales pitch? -- Stacy

Ingredients:

1 package devil's food cake mix
1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup whipping (heavy) cream
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 package miniature semisweet chocolate chips (1 cup)

Instructions:

Heat oven to 350°. Prepare, bake, and cool cake as directed on package for jelly roll pan. Beat cream cheese in medium bowl on medium speed until smooth. Beat in powdered sugar, whipping cream, and vanilla on medium speed about 2 minutes or until thickened. Spread over cake. Sprinkle chocolate chips over cheese mixture. Refrigerate at least 1 hour until cheese mixture is firm. Cut into 2x1 1/2-inch bars. Refrigerate any remaining bars.
