Paula Deen Gooey Butter Cake
Paula Deen Gooey Butter Cake
"Inspired by her iconic recipe, this is a slightly different take on Gooey Butter Cake, (no boxed cake mix) but it’s still easy for any level baker to make. Its tender crumb, super-soft filling, and rich butter flavor will satisfy every sweet tooth. Get ready for a cake so gooey it looks like a bar. So, what makes Paula Deen’s recipe different from the others? Paula Deen’s butter cake is made with a box of yellow cake mix, but I didn’t want to go that route so I tweeked the recipe to make it even better. Unlike a traditional butter cake that uses butter and light corn syrup for the gooey filling, her recipe has a cream cheese filling made with butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar. This recipe is unique because of the unexpected texture and flavor of the gooey cream cheese layer. What’s more fun than riffing on a classic? That’s what I love about cooking and baking—the opportunity to make things your own. "
