Gooey butter cake can be made in a variety of flavors, such as chocolate, pumpkin, or red velvet.
Gooey butter cake was invented in the 1930s by German immigrants living in St. Louis, Missouri. The original name for the cake was “Butterkuchen,” which means “butter cake” in German. However, the name was later changed to “Gooey Butter Cake” because of the cake’s unique texture. Gooey Butter Cake became a popular dessert in the Midwest region of the United States and remains popular to this day.
Making gooey butter cake is easier than you might think! Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, mix together 1 stick of softened butter, 1 egg, and 1 box of yellow cake mix.
