Gooey Butter Cake

Our friend, Stacey, brought this over one night for dessert and Jackson fell in love! So much so, that this was his request for his 10th birthday cake! It's delicious and a crowd-pleaser for kids and adults alike.

Ingredients:

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 stick butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 8oz. pkg cream cheese
  • 2 3/4 cup powdered sugar (save a little to dust the top)
Directions:
Mix dry cake mix, softened butter and one beaten egg in a bowl- the mixture will be stiff.
Press the mixture into 9x13 pan, making a small edge around the sides.
Mix softened cheese and two eggs until smooth; add powdered sugar.
Pour on top of the cake mixture.
Bake at 350° for 30-40 minutes.
Do not over bake! Only bake until the top begins to brown.
Allow cake to cool. 
Dust top of the cake with powdered sugar.
Cut into 24 squares (it's rich...you don't need a lot!) and enjoy!
