PAULA DEEN’S OOEY GOOEY BUTTER CAKE

When you hear the word “butter” who do you think of?  Paula Deen?  Me too.  I have never made a single recipe from Paula Deen (sorry Paula!  I still like ya’ll!) but I have seen this Paula Deen’s Ooey Gooey Butter Cake pinned so many times that I couldn’t resist.

I have also seen this pinned as “The Original Neiman Marcus Bars” and “Texas Gold Bars”.  Whatever you call them, they ARE ooey, they ARE gooey and they definitely have a rich, buttery flavor.

I can never think of butter without remembering one of my mother’s memories about butter.  It was during World War II and my mother lived in a project. She  remembers getting rations during the war and one of the things that was in scarce supply was butter.
