Ingredients:
1 package of yellow cake mix
3 eggs
8 ounces of softened cream cheese
16 ounces of powdered sugar
8 tablespoons of melted butter
Instructions:
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.
Prepare the cake mix layer: In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, 1 egg, and melted butter. Stir until well combined and press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Make the cream cheese layer: In another mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the remaining 2 eggs and powdered sugar, and beat until creamy and well combined.
Layer the cream cheese mixture: Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cake mix layer in the baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake to perfection: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Cool and slice: Allow the bars to cool completely in the baking dish before slicing into squares. For best results, refrigerate the bars for a few hours or overnight before serving.
Cook Notes and Variations:
Add toppings: Sprinkle chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or shredded coconut on top of the cream cheese layer before baking for added flavor and texture.
Experiment with flavors: Use different flavors of cake mix, such as chocolate or lemon, to create unique variations of these bars.
Drizzle with sauce: Serve the bars with a drizzle of caramel sauce, chocolate ganache, or fruit compote for an extra indulgent touch.
