Easter Morning Gooey Butter Cake

Happy Easter Everyone!

This morning, I woke up to James calling me. He wanted to know if there was a dessert that I could whip up this morning to take with us. His family was in charge of dessert and his mom wasn't sure if she made enough for everyone. In my groggy state, I thought of cupcakes but I didn't have any frosting. Plus, when I make cupcakes, it takes like two hours so I didn't have time. Then, I remembered that I just got a recipe for Gooey Butter Cake from my manager yesterday. I needed powdered sugar and cream cheese though. His mom just happen to have both so we were in business! James ran me the ingredients and in an hour, we have gooey butter cake. Only scary part is, I have no idea if it's any good... Guess we'll find out. It sure smells good!



The yellow cake mix, egg and butter mixture patted in the 9x13 pan. I created a little lip from the experience I had with the Snicker Gooey Cake.

Cream cheese, powdered sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract mixture. 

All together and in the oven. I almost forgot to take the picture!

 This is showing the way it sank when it cooled. 

The finished product.


And.. It was a hit!! Everyone loved it! I must admit, it's pretty yummy! Plus, it was simple to make..
