Ingredients:
For the Crust:
- 1 box yellow cake mix (dry)
- 8 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 egg
For the Gooey Layer:
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 2 eggs (beaten)
- 16 oz powdered sugar
Preparation:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan. In a medium bowl, combine the dry yellow cake mix, melted butter, and egg. Mix until smooth, then press the crust evenly into the bottom of the pan. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the beaten eggs and mix well. Gradually incorporate the powdered sugar, beating until the mixture is creamy and well-combined. Pour the gooey layer over the crust and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting into squares. These gooey cream cheese bars are perfect for dessert lovers seeking a sweet, chewy treat that’s easy to make and impossible to resist!
