1 18 1/4-ounce package yellow cake mix
1 egg

Filling:
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1 16-ounce box powdered sugar
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla, and butter and beat together. Next, add the powdered sugar and mix well. Spread over cake batter and bake for 40 to 50 minutes. Make sure not to over bake as the center should be a little gooey.
DIRECTIONS
Let’s get started by making the foundation for this cake. You might guess that you’ll need some of this:
You’ll need some of this too:
Lucky me. I got to brush up on my Spanish while reading the instructions on the cake mix.Melt the butter in a bowl and then dump in the cake mix and an egg.
Mix well with an electric mixer.
Now, with very clean hands, let’s press the dough into the bottom of a buttered 9 X 13 inch pan. My four year old loved having this job.
For the filling you’re going to combine another stick of butter (it’s called butter cake for a reason, people!) with 8 oz. of cream cheese. I beat until smooth. 
You’ll also need to add in a pound of powdered sugar, a couple of eggs, and some vanilla. Mix well. It should look about like this when you’re finished.
Pour the filling over the cake mixture.
Spread the filling evenly over the cake. I added my own little touch here with some pretty blue and pink sugar sprinkled across the top. I was thinking Easter…
Now into the oven for 40 minutes at 350 degrees. You can just imagine how amazing your house will smell as this bakes. Mouth-watering good.
