Ingredients
Scale
Cake Base:
- 3 ½ cups (440 grams) powdered sugar
- 8 ounces (226 grams) softened cream cheese
- 2 eggs (2 beaten eggs, 1 whole egg)
- 2 sticks (226 grams) melted butter
- 1 box dry yellow cake mix
Instructions
- Preparation: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and thoroughly grease a 9×13 inch (23×33 centimeters) baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- Base Layer: Blend cake mix, melted butter, and egg in a medium bowl until forming a cohesive dough, then press evenly across the pan’s bottom to create a uniform foundation.
- Cream Cheese Filling: Whip cream cheese using an electric mixer until smooth, then integrate eggs and powdered sugar, whisking continuously to develop a velvety, lump-free mixture.
- Assembly: Gently cascade the cream cheese filling over the cake mix base, spreading uniformly with a spatula to ensure complete coverage.
- Baking: Position the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, monitoring for a light golden surface while maintaining a slight wobble in the center.
- Cooling and Serving: Transfer to a wire rack and allow complete cooling for 1-2 hours, enabling the bars to set properly. Once cooled, slice into desired portions and serve at room temperature for optimal taste and texture.
