Gooey Butter Cake

Gooey Butter Cake

*I take Hershey's Milk Chocolate Chips and cover half of the crust and leave the other half plain..and then after pouring the filing in, I cover the top half on the same side with Hershey's Mini Morsels ( I know it is hard to believe but, I actually know a few people who do NOT like chocolate..can you believe it??)

Cake:
1 18 1/4-ounce package yellow cake mix
1 egg
8 tablespoons butter, melted

Filling:
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1 16-ounce box powdered sugar

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine the cake mix, egg, and butter and mix well with an electric mixer. Pat the mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased 13 by 9-inch baking pan.

Prepare Filling:
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla, and butter and beat together.
Next, add the powdered sugar and mix well. Spread over cake batter and bake for 40 to 50 minutes. Make sure not to over bake as the center should be a little gooey.

**(Baking time definitely varies oven to oven, so, check it at 30 & 40 minutes with a toothpick-also, if the edges are good and done take it out, even if it doesn't look done as long as the toothpick comes out clean)  let it set for at least 30 minutes.
