Texas Gold Bars

**this is a re-posted recipe from several months ago,

but I thought it'd be yummy to share again!**

from deep in the heart....

some Texas Gold Bars for you!!

This is my mom's yummy recipe,

and a great sweet treat to put on a dessert tray for your next gathering!

did I mention that they are completely fat free?

JUST KIDDING!!

on that note, you will need:

1 stick butter, melted

4 eggs

1 package yellow cake mix

1 1-lb. bag powdered sugar

8 oz cream cheese, softened

thats all fat free stuff, right? :)

(preheat oven to 325)

mix together:

the box of cake mix,

1 egg beaten,

and the melted stick of butter...

this is already looking yummy and buttery, right?

in a separate bowl, mix together with wisk:

the cream cheese (8 oz),

3 eggs beaten,

and the powdered sugar...

now pat the first mixture

(the one with the cake mix)

into a pan.

this will be like your "crust".

I used two 8x8 pans, or you could do it all in a 9x13 pan.

then pour the other mixture on top...

Then pop it in the oven at 325 for about 35 minutes, or until is gets golden brown on top.

stick a toothpick in to make sure its baked though.

YUMMY!!

did you notice that I forgot to take a picture from right after I baked it?

hmmmm...

guilty.

I finally remembered, one row in.

seriously, they are that good.

and so easy!

also, it fools people because they kindof look like lemon bars, but when they eat it,

they realize they are much better (and buttery-er)! :)

Enjoy!!
