CHEWY SQUARES

Your man will love these! Great for gatherings like football parties, picnics, etc. It's worth repeating: Do Not use the yellow cake mix with pudding, it won't work in this recipe. By all means use your food processor to make this easy. BTW, 16 ounces of powdered sugar equals 2 3/4 cups, for those who buy in bulk.

Ingredients

shortening
flour
1 (18 1/4 ounce) classic yellow cake mix (Duncan Hines works best do NOT use the mix with pudding)
1 egg
1/2 cup real butter, softened (no substitute)
1 (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
1 (16 ounce) box confectioners' sugar (can reserve 3-4 tablespoons for dusting)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Prepare a 9"x13" baking pan by greasing with shortening and dusting with flour; set aside.
Place the cake mix, egg and softened stick of butter in a food processor. Process until thoroughly mixed, about a minute. Mixture will be crumbly then will form into a dough.
Scoop mixture into the prepared pan and press evenly. (I place a piece of plastic wrap over and press with my hand.).
No need to clean the processor's bowl. To the emptied food processor bowl, place the softened cream cheese, 2 eggs and confections' sugar (hold out a couple of tablespoons if using for dusting). Start pulsing then process until smooth; about a minute. Pour mixture over the cake layer, spreading evenly.
Bake 300 degress for approximatley 1 hour or until golden brown. Cool completely. Dust (best done using a sieve) with remaining confections sugar, if desired. Cut into squares.

I love that these chewy squares can be made with different kinds of chocolate chips. I've made them with milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and even white chocolate chips.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chewy squares turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, but they just didn't come out right.

These chewy squares were not as chewy as I expected them to be. They were also a bit too crumbly.

I found these chewy squares to be a bit too dry. They also didn't have much flavor.

These chewy squares were a bit too sweet for my taste, and they also have a bit of a strange aftertaste.
