You would figure as a guy who spent many years in Missouri I would know a thing or two about Missouri traditions. But I don’t. I have just recently heard of a St. Louis tradition known as the Gooey Butter Cake, and I can’t tell if it looks good or not. According to Wiki, the Gooey Butter Cake has a “bottom layer of buttery yellow cake and a top layer of either egg and cream cheese, or butter and sugar. It is generally served as a type of coffee cake and not as a dessert cake.” The Office's Phyllis says the cake will in fact put you in “immediate cardiac arrest,” and that sounds delicious.

I think gooey butter cake sounds delish. I will serve some at the next Imwold party, and of course, you are invited : ).
Gooey Butter Cake ROCKS!!
I can't believe you've never had it.....at all of those family things we've had?? I've made it a few times....
And anything that starts with a stick of butter is a winner in my eyes, anyway!!
