GOOEY BUTTER BARS

Today I’m going to share a super easy recipe with you.  Why?  Because it’s the day after a holiday – and we all need an easy day after a holiday.

And it’s delish.

And I’m on a mini-overnight-vacation (or maybe staycation?) with my family, so blogging has to be kept short & sweet!

I think this recipe has been around forever.  At least it has in my family.  And it has at least a dozen different names and as many variations.

But whatever you call it – or whatever small alterations you make… the bottom line is, Gooey Butter Bars are the bomb!!

INGREDIENTS
FOR THE CRUST:

• 1 box yellow cake mix, I use Pillsbury (18.25 ounce)
• 1 stick of butter, at room temperature
• 1 egg

FOR THE GOOEY FILLING:

• 1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1 box (16 or so oz.) powdered sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 2 eggs

INSTRUCTIONS

1. For the crust, mix the first 3 ingredients together in a large bowl with a fork until mixed together as thoroughly as possible. The texture of the mixture will be, well, bizarre. Dry and clumpy. Dump into a greased 9″x13″ pan, and press down with your hands. Cover the bottom and slightly up the sides of the dish.
