Cake Mix Cookie Bars with Cream Cheese

preview

Jump to Recipe -These Cake Mix Bar Cookies have a gooey layer of powdered sugar and cream cheese mixture, making this great recipe a delicious, easy dessert for any occasion!I go in phases where I tend to bake the same thing over and over. Most recently, I was on a&nbsp;jello poke cake kick, resulting in the purchase of lots of box cake mixes and jello of different flavors.&nbsp;I really love poke cakes, but I had purchased a bunch of Betty Crocker white cake mix, yellow cake mix, and strawberry cake mix on sale and lost my interest in poke cake before I ran out of cake mix. Story of my life!In addition to all the cake mix, I had a significant amount of jello on hand as well. I like having boxed ingredients like that on hand to make simple dessert recipes, but when I say I had bought a ton, I’m not exaggerating.I decided to start using some of it up to make cake mix bar cookies. I’ve made cake mix cookies in the past using a chocolate cake mix, but I wanted to try something different. I wanted to somehow incorporate what I had on hand (a bunch of cake mix and boxes of jello) into cookie bar form.The result of my experiment is this simple recipe with simple ingredients that is a little bit like gooey butter cake and also a bit like cheesecake cookie bars. These gooey cake bars have a shortbread-like bottom layer and a sweet and creamy middle layer with a thin crackle layer on the top. This is the perfect dessert for anyone who wants a quick treat to satisfy their sweet tooth.For this specific recipe I used a strawberry cake mix and strawberry jello but you could easily use a vanilla cake mix or even a lemon cake mix would be great. Same with the jello…you can use any kind of jello that will complement the box of cake mix you choose. This is such a versatile, easy recipe it doesn’t need much explanation. But since this is a food blog, and you came here I’m assuming for the recipe, let me share the recipe and a few tips.As far as equipment goes, you don’t need much (which is why I love making these bars …they are simple as can be!). You will need:I told you this recipe was simple! Here’s the ingredient list for your shopping list (although hopefully, you have most of this on hand!).These are really easy bars to make. In fact, you probably don’t need any tips, but here are a few things to help ensure your bars are successful.Now that you are all set with what equipment and ingredients you need as well as have some tips for success, I think it’s time to share the recipe!
