Lynnda's Notes:

These bars are courtesy of Momofuku's. Trust me....they're heavenly.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line an 8 x 8 inch pan with parchment paper.

Make the base first: mix together cake mix, butter and 1 egg.

Pat into pan, create an even layer

Make the ooey gooey layer: Cream together the cream cheese, 2 eggs, sugar and vanilla.

Pour gooey layer over cake layer, spread to edges.

Bake for 45 minutes* or until edges are golden brown, center should be a creamy yet solid consistency like cheesecake or heaven.

Cool completely in pan before cutting into 1-inch sqaures with a clean, dry knife. For best square results, pop into freezer and chill before slicing.

I use this exact recipe, but use a 9x13 pan. I've always thought mine were too thin, but mine were always undercooked in a smaller pan. What's the secret?
