Ooey Gooey Butter Bars

Ooey Gooey Butter Bars


  • Author: Jackson Walker
  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 16 bars 1x

Description

Rich, creamy, and outrageously delicious—these buttery bars are part cake, part cheesecake, and all indulgence. With just a handful of ingredients and a box of cake mix, they come together fast and disappear even faster.


Ingredients

Scale

Bottom Layer:

1 box yellow cake mix

1 egg

½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted

Top Layer:

1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups powdered sugar


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

In a medium bowl, mix cake mix, 1 egg, and melted butter until a soft dough forms. Press evenly into the bottom of the prepared dish.

In another bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add remaining 2 eggs and vanilla, then slowly mix in powdered sugar until creamy and well combined.

Pour cream cheese mixture over the base layer and spread evenly.

Bake for 35–40 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is just set (it will still be a little gooey).

Cool completely before cutting into squares.
