. Prepare the Baking Dish:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter. Set aside.
2. Make the Crust:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, melted butter, and egg. Mix until fully combined and a thick dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a crust. Use your fingers or the back of a spatula to ensure it’s smooth and evenly distributed.
3. Prepare the Filling:
In another mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy, about 1–2 minutes.
Add the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Continue mixing until the filling is smooth and thick.
4. Assemble the Cake:
Pour the filling over the crust in the baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly.
Tap the dish gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
5. Bake the Cake:
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40–45 minutes. The top should be golden brown, but the center should remain slightly jiggly—it will set as it cools.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the dish.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
Once the cake has cooled, slice it into squares or rectangles.
Optionally, dust the top with additional powdered sugar for a pretty finish.
Serve at room temperature or slightly chilled for the best texture.
Tips for the Perfect Ooey Gooey Butter Cake:
Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your cream cheese, eggs, and butter are at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother filling.
Don’t Overbake: The cake is meant to be gooey, so resist the urge to bake it until it’s completely firm in the center.
Customizations: Try experimenting with flavored cake mixes like chocolate or lemon for a fun twist on the classic recipe.
Storage: Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze individual slices for longer storage.
