Gooey Butter Cake

For the Crust
Cooking spray
1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Filling
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (room temperature)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups confectioners' sugar (and extra for sprinkling on top)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and grease a 9"-x-13" baking pan with cooking spray.
Melt butter over medium heat.
In a large mixing bowl, mix cake mix, melted butter, 2 eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla with a spoon. Pat into greased baking pan.
Mix cream cheese, 2 eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla with an electric mixer in a large bowl until it is extremely smooth. Slowly beat in confectioner's sugar (I used a rubber spatula to mix incorporate the sugar and then I use the electric mixer) beat until smooth. Pour over cake layer.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Cool. Sprinkle with more powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy!
