Sometimes you just have to post a Paula Deen recipe and this one is pretty darn good! Literally soft, creamy, ooey-gooey cake great served with ice cream.
The cake
1 box yellow cake mix
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter, melted
The filling
1 (8 oz.) package full fat cream cheese, softened
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp heavy cream
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
4 cups confectioners sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a 9-inch by 3-inch round cake pan with baking spray or line bottom with parchment paper.
Combine the cake mix, eggs, vanilla and melted butter in a bowl until fully incorporated.
Press the cake mixture into bottom of prepared pan and get it as flat as possible.
Filling
In a stand mixer beat cream cheese, heavy cream, eggs, vanilla, salt and melted butter on medium speed until creamed.
Stir in the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time.
Pour the cream cheese mixture over cake mixture.
Bake for 35-45 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.
ENJOY!
