How to Make Easy Fudgy Cake Mix Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, and 2 large eggs. Mix until just combined.
- Press 3/4 of the crust mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Set aside 1/4 of the crust mixture.
- Prepare the fudge topping: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Microwave on 50% power in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy. This should take approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Pour the fudge mixture evenly over the prepared crust.
- Sprinkle the reserved crust mixture evenly over the fudge layer.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. Do not overbake!
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
