What's For Dessert? Double Chocolate Gooey Butter Cake
What a simple but delicious treat.
Not only is it a shared recipe in many homes,
you can find it at any grocery store bakery.
Anyway, we had these for dessert for our Sunday Family Dinner this week.
Ingredients
1 (16-ounce) box powdered sugar
3 to 4 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 egg, plus 2 eggs
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (18.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
Butter, for greasing pan, plus 16 tablespoons (2 sticks) butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped nuts
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Lightly grease a 13 by 9-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, 1 egg, and 8 tablespoons (1 stick) melted butter, and stir until well blended. Pat mixture into prepared pan and set aside. In a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the remaining 2 eggs, and the cocoa powder. Lower the speed of the mixer, and add the powdered sugar. Continue beating until ingredients are well mixed. Slowly add the remaining 8 tablespoons (1 stick) of melted butter, and the vanilla, continuing to beat the mixture until smooth. Stir in nuts with a rubber spatula. Spread filling over cake mixture in pan.
Bake for 40 to 50 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the cake; the center should still be a little gooey when finished baking. Let cake partially cool on a wire rack before cutting into pieces.

Oh my that looks good! Maybe a little too good, like one of those things the hubby and I polish off in one night when we really shouldn't :)
Mines in the oven! Thanks for the recipe. Let's just say I start my diet tomorrow and this will have to be my last hurrah!
The other gooey cake (in my opinion) is better cold. Is this a cake that is better hot or cold?

Why, oh why do you keep tempting me with these incredible desserts? Alas, chocolate is my downfall! ;)
Thanks for linking to the party again. Hope to see you next time, as well.
