Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Lightly grease (or spray with Pam) one deep 9x13 rectangular cake pan. I would suggest a 4 in deep pan, as the cake rises when it is cooking, but a oven-safe disposable coffee cake pan from the grocery store would work fine too.
- Melt butter. I do this by heating the the microwave on low power for 30 seconds.
- Empty cake mix into a large bowl.
- Stir melted butter, along with ONE egg, into the cake mix.
- PRESS mixture into pan. Mixture will have the consistency of sticky dough. Using a spatula works for me, but pressing with clean fingers will do the trick as well.
- In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, almond or vanilla extract, confectioners sugar and the remaining two eggs.
- Beat for three minutes with an electric mixer set on medium high speed, or until smooth with NO lumps.
- Pour evenly over top of the cake mixture in the pan. Use a spatula to spread.
- Place a large cookie sheet on the rack below the cake. Sometimes when you use a cake pan with less depth, the cake bubbles and spills over. The cookie sheet will spare your oven! Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes until golden brown on top. Cooking time is estimated, you will really have to watch it here! I always take the cake out when it turns a darkish golden brown. Note that there will be a paper thin sugar "crust" that will form while the cake is baking. It the top layer of sugar hardening, and this is what will turn golden brown. It adds great texture!
- Allow cake to cool COMPLETELY. This is very important, as the cake will not cut easily until it is completely cool. You will notice that the cake has sunken and set. This is normal. Refrigeration is optional. I personally like it at room temperature.
- Dust the top with confectioners' sugar.
- Cut cake into bars and serve with or without utensils, but make sure you have plenty of napkins, because this treat will have you licking your fingers! (Cake should be gooey underneath the sugar "crust", so don't over bake!).

Steps:
- Grease 9x13 cake pan and dust with powdered sugar. Or, line cake pan with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Make base layer of cake Beat one egg in a large mixing bowl. Melt one stick of butter. Add cake mix and melted butter to bowl with beaten egg. Stir until well-combined. You can do this with a spatula or use an electric mixer. Your choice. Cake mix will be thick. Dump this mixture (it will be too thick to pour) into the cake pan and spread with hands until it's an even layer. Run the flat side of a measuring cup over the cake so the top is smooth and doesn't have fingerprints. Unless you're going to be serving people who like fingerprints in their cake. But, no one is going to see the fingerprints because you're going to cover it with a cream cheese layer. Make cream cheese layer. In the same bowl you used to make the base cake layer, beat the remaining two eggs. To the eggs add softened 8-ounce cream cheese and two cups of powdered sugar until smooth. You won't see any tiny lumps of cream cheese if you've beat it enough. For this step, I recommend an electric mixer. It took me about five minutes using my stand mixer to beat all the lumps out of the batter. Pour cream cheese mixture over the base layer of cake. Bake at 325 F for at least 30 minutes but no more than 35 minutes. Start checking at 25 minutes to make sure it isn't over baking. You want to pull the cake out when the middle still has a bit of jiggle. After removing from oven, let cool in the pan on a wire rack. Gild the lily, if you like, by dusting with powdered sugar. Serve with strong coffee or tea or whiskey. Makes 24 servings.

Steps:
- For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
- Combine the cake mix, nutmeg, vanilla and eggs in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the melted butter and mix just until combined. Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- For the filling: Beat the cream cheese in a clean mixer bowl with the paddle on medium speed until light and smooth, scraping the sides occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the vanilla bean paste and eggs and beat until smooth. Add the melted butter and beat until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed to incorporate, and then beat on medium until light and smooth, about 1 minute. Pour over the cake layer and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake until the edges are puffed and golden brown and the center is just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool before cutting into squares to serve.
GOOEY BUTTER CAKE
The signature dessert of St. Louis is just what its name suggests-a wonderfully gooey butter cake that doesn't quite set when baked.

Steps:
- For the cake, place the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat for about 1 minute, or in the microwave on low power for 45 seconds, and heat until the milk is 100° F. Sprinkle the yeast over the milk, and stir to dissolve. Set aside.
- Place the butter, sugar, and salt in a large bowl, and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the egg, and beat until incorporated. Stop the mixer, and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the flour alternately with the yeast and milk mixture, beginning and ending with the flour. When all the flour has been added, blend on low speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
- Lightly rub butter into the bottom of two 8" square pans. Divide the dough in half, and press one half into the bottom of each pan. Cover each pan loosely with plastic wrap, and place in a warm place to rise until nearly doubled, about 2 hours.
- When the dough has nearly finished rising, make the filling. Place the butter, sugar, salt, and corn syrup in a large mixing bowl, and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the bowl and add the vanilla and 1 egg. Beat on medium speed until combined, then add the second egg. Add the milk and half the flour, beating until combined. Add the rest of the flour, and beat until smooth. Set aside.
- Place a rack in the center of the oven, and preheat the oven to 350°F. Pour the filling over the rising dough, dividing it evenly between the 2 pans, and spread it to the edges. Place the pans in the oven.
- Bake the cakes until the tops are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, and let the cakes cool for 20 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar, slice, and serve warm.
ST. LOUIS GOOEY BUTTER CAKE
Legend has it that the St. Louis gooey butter cake originated by accident in the 1930s, when a baker mixed up the proportion of butter in one of his coffee cakes. Rather than throw it out, he sold it by the square, and the sugary, sticky confection was a hit. Naturally, a slice of gooey cake ends up next to - or in place of - the pumpkin pie at many a Missourian's Thanksgiving table. Some bakers like to add pumpkin and spices to the gooey filling. Not so in this yeast-risen version from Molly Killeen, the St. Louis native behind Made by Molly, a dessert company in Brooklyn. Her recipe is soft-centered, crisp-edged and not too sweet. The leftovers are excellent for breakfast the next morning.
