This recipe has been around forever with my family. And it has at least a dozen different names and as many
variations.
Ingredients
For Crust:
1 box yellow cake mix, dry (not prepared)
8 Tablespoons butter (melted)
1 egg
Gooey Layer:
8 oz. cream cheese (softened)
2 eggs (beaten)
16 oz. powdered sugar
How To Make Ooey Gooey Bars
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, combine cake mix, melted butter and egg. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Pat and press dough evenly over the bottom of a greased 9×13 baking pan. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, beat and cream the cream cheese. Add the eggs and beat until smooth for a minute or two. Add powdered sugar and continue to beat until well combined.
Pour over crust and bake at 350 degrees F for about 25-30 minutes or until done. Do not over bake.
When done, remove from oven and let cool completely before cutting into bars.
