Gooey butter cake



         


Gooey Butter Cake is a variation of yellow cake traditionally made in Saint Louis, Missouri. Legend has it that sometime in the 1930's a German baker in St. Louis made this cake by accident by doubling the butter in a recipe for coffee cake. The cake batter is made today by combining yellow cake mix, eggs, and butter. The cake is usually topped with a cream cheese frosting.
