Notes
- Make sure to grease your pan well to ensure the cake doesn't stick. Alternatively, you could line your pan with parchment paper.
- Your ingredients should always be at room temperature, especially the cream cheese, otherwise you'll find it difficult to mix.
- The cream cheese layer should be thoroughly mixed until smooth, at least for 3 minutes.
- Store this gooey butter cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To freeze, tightly wrap any leftover cake with plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag or airtight container for 4-5 months.
