Gooey Butter Cake

I got this from my friend Jeanna.

1 box yellow cake mix
1 egg
1 stick butter, melted

Preheat over 350. Lightly grease a 13x9 pan. Combine cake mix, egg, and melted butter. Mix well and pat into bottom of prepared pan. Set aside.

1 (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 (16 oz) box confectioners' sugar
1 stick butter, melted

Using a mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla. Dump in confectioners' sugar and beat well. Reduce speed of mixer and slowly pour in butter. Mix well. Pour filling onto cake mixture and spread evenly. Bake for 40-50 minutes. You want the center to be a little gooey so don't bake it past that point. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. Cut into squares.

My 2 cents worth:

• If you cook it too long it is not as good. You want it gooey.
• It is made to eat not right out of the oven so make it early to take somewhere or when people are coming over.
• It is called BUTTER cake - it IS good!!
  

German Coffee Cake

I got this from my friend Kendra.

Ingredients:

3 cups flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup buttermilk
1 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Mix flour, sugar, brown sugar, salt, and vegetable oil together. Remove 1/3 of the mix and set aside.

Mix remaining ingredients together and add to the remaining 2/3 of the first mixture. Mix together until smooth.

Pour into a greased 9x13 pan. Crumble the mixture which was set aside over the top.

Bake at 325 for 20 to 30 minutes or until middle is firm to touch.

My 2 cents worth:

• This is yummy! Be careful, I can not stop eating it!
• This is good even if it is not hot out of the stove so it could be good to take somewhere.
