How to Make The Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12x18-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine, 1/2 cup water, and 1 large egg. Mix until just combined.
  3. Pat the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat together 8 oz cream cheese (softened), 3 large eggs, and 1 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gently pour the cream cheese mixture over the cake batter in the pan.
  6. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
