Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Rubber spatula
  • Electric hand mixer
  • Baking Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Box Yellow Cake Mix
  • 1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter
  • 4 Large Eggs
  • 2 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 8 Oz Cream Cheese
  • 4 Cups Powdered Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Turn your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit now. Spray your baking dish with nonstick cooking spray well.
  • Melt your unsalted butter in a small bowl. Let it cool down for a few minutes before using.
  • Pour your yellow cake mix into the large mixing bowl. Add one melted butter stick and two large eggs.
  • Stir the ingredients together with your rubber spatula. Keep stirring until a thick dough forms completely.
  • Press the thick cake dough into the bottom of your baking dish. Make it flat and even.
  • Place your softened cream cheese into a clean bowl. Use your electric mixer to beat it well.
  • Beat the cream cheese for three minutes until fluffy. Add two eggs and one teaspoon vanilla extract.
  • Add your powdered sugar to the cream cheese slowly. Mix on low speed until it is smooth.
  • Pour this sweet cream cheese mixture over your bottom cake layer. Spread it out to the edges.
  • Place the baking dish into your hot oven carefully. Bake it for thirty-five minutes now.
  • Look for golden brown edges on the cake. The center should still jiggle just a little bit.
  • Remove the cake from your oven very carefully. Let it cool down before you slice it.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese so your top layer does not have any lumps.
  • Do not overbake the cake because the center needs to stay soft and gooey.
  • Let the baked cake cool for twenty minutes to make slicing much cleaner.
  • Measure your powdered sugar correctly to keep the topping texture perfectly smooth and thick.
