Recipe: Jeanetta's Chess Cake (using cake mix and butter flavoring)

JEANETTA'S CHESS CAKE

"A dear friend makes this. The butter seasoning sounded weird but this is really delicious."

1 box Duncan Hines Yellow Cake mix (plain)
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter or margarine, softened
4 eggs, divided use
2 teaspoons butter flavoring, divided use
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 ( 1 lb) box powdered sugar

Mix together the dry cake mix, butter, 1 egg and 1 teaspoon butter flavoring. Press into the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking pan; set aside.

Mix together cream cheese, powdered sugar, remaining 3 eggs and the remaining 1 teaspoon butter flavoring; pour on top of the mixture in the pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden. (Cake will fall when removed from oven.)

Cut into bars.
