neiman marcus cake


This is a great (and super easy!) dessert to take to a party or a get-together.
My mom hates cheesecake or anything with cream cheese in it but she loves this!
It's gooey and rich and really really decadent and oh-so-easy!
Try it!  You'll be in love too....

Neiman Marcus Cake
Makes one 9x13" cake, or about 18 bars.
1 yellow cake mix
3 eggs
1 stick of butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 block (8 ounces) cream cheese, at room temperature
1 pound powdered sugar

Preheat your oven to 350*.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, one egg, butter, and one teaspoon vanilla.


The mixture should be clumpy crumbles.  Press into a 9x13" pan with the back of a measuring cup or your fingers.  Set aside.


Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine the other two eggs, one teaspoon vanilla and the cream cheese.  Mix with a hand mixer until creamy.  Add powdered sugar and cream until smooth and thick.


Pour on top of prepared base and bake for 30-40 minutes, until golden and just set.  Let cool slightly and enjoy!
