White Chocolate Butter Bars!








 White Chocolate Butter Bars!

I have been eyeing this recipe since I saw it posted on www.cookiesandcups.com.  Yesterday, I couldn't take it anymore.  I had all the ingredients on hand, I LOVE white chocolate!  I wanted something different.  Even though I didn't feel all too great, I figured it looked easy enough, so White Chocolate Butter Bars it was.  If you want something easy and tasty, give them a try.  The bottom of mine came out darker than I would have liked, (thanks to my lousy tiny little apartment oven with the messed up thermostat) but they were delicious none the less! 

1. You start with a box of yellow cake mix and some cold butter.  Mix together until you have a crumbly consistency.

2. Add an egg and the vanilla.  Continue to mix.  It will be very thick.  reminded me of playdough.



3. Press into a greased Pyrex 9x13 dish.

 4.   Sprinkle white chocolate chips over the crust....eat a few....go ahead it's hard to resist : ) .

5.  Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, eggs, and vanilla.  Pour onto the chocolate chips.  Spread it evenly over the top, and bake until the middle sets. 


6. Sprinkle with some powdered sugar.  Your house will smell amazing, and you will want to cut while hot.  ; )  It's tasty when hot, but amazing when it has been refrigerated and cooled!  It has been less than 24 hours and it is almost gone! 

Here is the complete recipe typed out!  Enjoy!  Let me know what you think.  Thanks for a great recipe http://www.cookiesandcups.com.
