How to Make Ruth S Good Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine one 15.25-ounce box of your favorite cake mix, 3 large eggs, and 1/2 cup (113g) melted unsalted margarine. Mix until just combined.
  3. The batter will be thick. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  4. In a separate bowl, prepare the topping (recipe below). Beat until smooth and creamy.
  5. Spread the topping evenly over the cake batter.
  6. Bake for 45-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking for doneness around the 45-minute mark.
  7. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before serving. Enjoy!
