Gooey Butter Cake Recipes

December 16, 2013

I received a recipe for a Gooey Cake. This is made with a cake mix. I liked the concept of the cake but this was entirely too sweet. I am diabetic so I try to stay from the sweetest of the sweet. I began to alter to suit my taste.

I started with a chocolate cake mix, my favorite candy bar is a Mounds bar, I began to try different ways to make it mine. It has taken four years and finally, because I did not have any canned or sweetened coconut in the bags, I used what I had in the freezer. Bingo!

Yield: Can be cut to suit what you want. From 12 to 24.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pkg. Chocolate Cake Mix ($1.25)
  • 1/2 cup Butter ($.50)
  • 1 null Egg ($.15)
  • 3 cups Powdered sugar ($1.20)
  • 1 pkg. frozen coconut ($1.50)
  • 1 oz 8 oz pkg cream cheese ($1.00)
  • 2 eggs ($.30)

Steps:

  1. Mix cake mix, 1 egg, and 1 stick (1/2 cup) of softened butter really well. Press into the bottom of 13 x 9 inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray.
  2. Mix cream cheese (can be low fat) with sugar and eggs and beat well. Add coconut to this mixture and pour into the dish on top of the cake mixture. Spread to even this out.
  3. Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and cool. Cut into squares or finger pieces. and serve. Can be frozen after baking.
