Ooey Gooey Butter Cake

This cake has 2 layers of deliciousness and only 5 ingredients bringing it all together. I can’t believe how easy this cake is. Don’t even have me say how delicious it is. It definitely lives up to it’s name. When I make a dish my family will come home and go straight to the kitchen. When they smelled this as they came in the door, they ran to the kitchen.
