Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) for even baking.
- In a medium bowl, combine yellow cake mix, melted butter, and 1 egg. Mix until well combined. The dough will be thick and sticky.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- Gently press the dough into an even layer in the baking pan, firmly packing it to create a solid base.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add beaten eggs to the cream cheese, whisking until well mixed and smooth.
- Gradually add powdered sugar, whisking until the filling is thick and creamy.
- Pour the cream cheese filling over the crust, using a spatula to spread it evenly.
- Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the top is slightly golden and the center is still jiggly. Avoid overbaking for the best gooey texture.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for 1-2 hours to allow the filling to set.
- After cooling, cut into squares or rectangles with a sharp knife. Serve at room temperature and enjoy with a glass of milk or coffee.
Notes
These bars are best served at room temperature and pair wonderfully with a glass of milk or coffee.
