Gooey Butter Cake is a St. Louis tradition of a yellow cake crust topped with a gooey cream cheese filling. Here I share the classic recipe as well as some delicious Ooey Gooey Butter Cake variations! What Makes This Cake So Good?
Cinnamon Gooey Butter Cake: Mix together 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 1 ½ teaspoons of cinnamon together, and sprinkle over the topping before baking. Red Velvet Gooey Butter Cake: Use a red velvet cake mix. Strawberry Gooey Butter Cake: Use a strawberry cake mix.
Traditional recipes for gooey butter cake range from 2-4 cups of powdered sugar in the filling. I found that right in the middle, at 3 cups is the perfect balance of being sweet, but not overly sweet. Plus, the cake gets dusted with additional powdered sugar, so starting a little lighter on the powdered sugar works well. Look at this!
Top with sliced fresh strawberries. Does gooey butter cake need to be refrigerated? The cake can be stored at room temperature, covered, for up to 4 days, or in the refrigerator for one week. In the freezer, it will last for up to 4 months.
