How to Make Easy Crazy Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 large egg until light and fluffy.
  4. Gradually add the dry cake mix, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently pat the crumbly mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with chopped nuts (if using).
  6. In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 2 large eggs, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  7. Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cake batter in the baking dish.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Let cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
