Ooey Gooey Bars Recipe
Ingredients:
-
1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
-
3 large eggs (divided)
-
8 oz cream cheese, softened
-
16 oz (about 4 cups) powdered sugar
-
8 tbsp (1 stick) butter, melted
Instructions:
-
Preheat & Prep: Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
-
Make the Crust: In a bowl, mix cake mix, melted butter, and 1 egg until a thick dough forms. Press evenly into the baking dish.
-
Prepare the Filling: Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add 2 eggs and mix well. Gradually stir in powdered sugar until silky and lump-free.
-
Layer & Bake: Pour the filling over the crust, spreading evenly. Bake for 30 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is set (it’ll still be slightly jiggly).
-
Cool & Slice: Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
