Confetti Gooey Butter Cake (Print Version)
Sweet confetti cake layered with cream cheese and sprinkles, baked to soft, colorful perfection.
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 package XO Baking Co Confetti Cake Mix
02 -
⅓ cup butter, melted
03 -
2 eggs, divided
04 -
6 oz cream cheese, room temperature
05 -
3 cups confectioners’ sugar
06 -
Optional: 2 tbsp sprinkles
# Steps:
01 -
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray an 8×8 baking pan with nonstick baking spray and set aside.
02 -
In a medium bowl, mix together the Confetti Cake Mix, 1 egg, and melted butter until fully combined. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared pan—it will be thick like cookie dough.
03 -
In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1 egg, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture over the cake layer and gently spread it to the edges.
04 -
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of sprinkles over the top for extra color and crunch.
05 -
Bake for 40–50 minutes. The edges will rise and set; the center should be soft but no longer jiggly.
06 -
Allow the cake to cool in the pan at room temperature before slicing. This helps the gooey center fully set.
