Chewy Gooey Bars (Ooey Gooey Bars)

Introduction

Chewy Gooey Bars are the ultimate indulgent dessert—simple to make yet incredibly rich and satisfying. With a soft, buttery cake mix crust and a luscious cream cheese topping, these bars strike the perfect balance between chewy and gooey. They’re ideal for potlucks, parties, or whenever you need an easy crowd-pleasing treat with minimal effort and maximum flavor.

Ingredients

For the Crust

• 1 box yellow cake mix (dry, not prepared)

• 8 tablespoons butter, melted

• 1 egg

For the Gooey Layer

• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

• 2 eggs, beaten

• 16 ounces powdered sugar

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan and set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Crust
In a medium bowl, mix the dry cake mix, melted butter, and egg until smooth and well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.

Step 3: Make the Gooey Layer
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the beaten eggs and mix for 1–2 minutes. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until fully combined and silky.

Step 4: Bake
Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. Be careful not to overbake to keep the bars gooey.

Step 5: Cool and Serve
Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely before cutting. This helps them set while keeping that irresistible gooey texture.

Conclusion

These Chewy Gooey Bars are a dessert lover’s dream—rich, creamy, and incredibly easy to prepare. With just a few simple ingredients and minimal prep time, you’ll have a decadent treat that everyone will ask for again.
