Ingredients
- yellow cake mix
- 1 butter softened
- 4 egg divided
- 3 ½ cups confectioners sugar powdered sugar
- 1 cream cheese block
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350. Prepare a 9x13 casserole dish as follows: Line with aluminum foil and then spray the aluminum foil with a baking spray such as Baker’s Joy.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer (or with your hand mixer – or if you are really strong – with a big spoon), combine cake mix, butter and ONE egg.
- Pat the cake mixture into the bottom of the 9x13 pan.
- Mix together the sugar, eggs, cream cheese, extracts and pinch of salt (will look like cake batter or pancake batter) and pour this over the cake mix layer.
- Bake in center of the oven for 35-45 minutes (my oven takes more like 45 mins +) – it is done when it gets puffy and starts to brown on the top. Shake the pan and when the center has just stopped jiggling, it’s done. Allow to cool before serving so that the center can gel. Don’t bother with the toothpick test – doesn’t necessarily work on this one.
Notes
- Use room temp ingredients for the best result.
- Light cheese cake texture is what you want.
- Make sure to put foil in the bottom of the pan so that your chess bars don't stick.
