Ingredients

• 1 box (15.25 ounces) Yellow cake mix
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 4 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, melted butter, and 1 egg. Mix until well combined and the dough is smooth. This will form the base layer.

Step 3

Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly using your hands or a spatula.

Step 4

In another large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth using a hand or stand mixer.

Step 5

Add the remaining 2 eggs, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix on medium speed until fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 6

Pour the cream cheese mixture over the base layer in the baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is slightly set but still jiggles a little when shaken.

Step 8

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the dish before slicing into squares or rectangles.

Step 9

Optionally, dust the top with additional powdered sugar before serving for an added touch of sweetness.

Step 10

Serve at room temperature or slightly chilled. Enjoy your Neiman Marcus Butter Cake!
