the gooey butter cake pictured here looks disgusting. why is it not baked all the way? gooey butter cake should not "ooze."

I love that you have both "Bad" but taste sooo good receipes and a lighter version of the same! I think most people love fatty comfort food and its ok once in a while but the rest of the time have to eat a little lighter.Good JOB! Keep up the good work!

On the show, Bobby makes a point of telling Paula that his recipe only uses one egg for the whole dessert. This recipe uses 2. Which is right?

OK.. i'm going to try it next time I need a cake. it comes out to be 7 points+ for WW. Would cooking it in a water bath help even out the cooking? Thanks Meg

Okay, so my friend and I have made this cake twice and both times it did not come out right. The first time we baked it 45 minutes and the center was too done. It was good, just not gooey. The second time we made it, we baked it for 35 minutes and the cake under the center was under done. We put it back into the oven and baked it another 5 minutes but the cake was still undercooked. At 45 minutes, it is no longer gooey. Any suggestions? The cake still comes out great but just not gooey.

I would love a recipe for Coconut Gooey Butter Cake,and have looked forever for a soft Oatmeal - Raisin Cookie. Thanks for all you do............I am a seasoned cook, but O so tired of cooking, but it's a necessity, so I love new and encouraging recipes. Thanks again, and Blessings.

Thank you Paula and Bobby. I am also diabetic, i'd like to see more recipes lightened Bobby. It sure helps for 1 such as me, and others out there. I did a peanut butter pie and i made it with splenda and cornstarch for the powdered sugar. Not the same but was still good!! I want to thank each of you for the recipes and information that i get from you. I'm trying to stay within my eating habits, it's been a battle. At first i was o.k. But Thank You Both and God Bless You!!!

Thank you so much Paula and Bobby. I am dietbic and trying to change some of my receipes so that I can still treat my self once in a while. I enjoy the foodnetwork it has helped me a lot. I wish their was a cooking show for dietbics I think it would be a big hit. Thank you again and have a great 4th of July weekend. Donna

I tried this cake (I bought slices at Walmart) and it is delicious! I am hooked and I need more than a slice or two at a time.

I am making this & adding strawberries to the filling! Can't wait!!! Thanks Bobby for helping us to all eat healthier!!!

By Carroll on April 09, 2011

This is really good. My kids aren't big cake eaters, but they absolutely loved this! I will definitely make it again.

By Rebecca on March 29, 2011

Yum this is so good... i think you could add some lemon zest to either of the batters to give it a good zing...

Tried the lighter version. Used a chocolate cake mix and added some cocoa for a "double chocolate" version. It was just "OK" to us. It was dry, not nearly the texture of a true "gooey" of which I am quite familiar as I make them often for special occasions. In a pinch this would work .. not something I would substitute for the "real thing".

You will slap your mama,We went back too walmart three times in one day.

OMG...I've got to tell ya..My daughter-in-law and I were in Walmarts looking at some of your cakes. I bought one for our bible study and it was just wonderful. Well, she found your gooey butter cake on the clearance rack and bought it. OMG OMG OMG........I seriously thought I died and went to heaven.....OMG...I don't like it...I LOVE IT......Love it.....Love it........ Of course, we ate it in one sitting. I went the next day to buy another one and they did not have one... Well, I have been looking every time I go there and just found one a couple of days ago and I am telling ya....This is my all time favorite dessert. I can't put it down and I do not want to share it with anyone. I will not look at the calories as I know that anything this good has to have a million calories in it but I am beside myself with this one. I don't LOVE alot of foods but everytime I see you on TV, I KNOW that I love everthing that you make as I LOVE butter.... I am going to TRY Bobby's lighter version of this cake but I am just sure as can be it is not going to be as good and I am going to have to live at Walmarts from now on. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.................. No, seriously, I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We won't let your husband win on this one!!! Sometimes our own oven temperatures aren't calibrated correctly. Does yours run hot? For best results, bake this cake in the middle rack of the oven. The key to the filling is starting with room temperature cream cheese and really beating well after each addition of the eggs. The crust is a no brainer and I'm sure you had that perfect. Just give it another try. We have faith in you!!! Libbie Summers, Senior Food Editor

My friend and I just fell in love with your gooey cake from Wal-Mart as well. However when we tried to make it well lets just say we will never give up. The cake burns and the center is like liquid sugar. What are we doing wrong? We followed the recipe as shown below and we used a 13X9 pan. We have also tried lowering the temp and we got a little closer. Any suggestions, besides my husbands " Your not a cook and you should just stop trying, because I'm tired of eating the mistakes.(I need more tums)"
