Hey guys, Bagel is finally back with a new account. Sorry i missed all the December challenges, but i am ready to get back into another year of baking!

I did a few of the December challenges,so here is my signature dish: gooey butter cake! A St. Louis special that i grew up on, gooey butter cake is a cake in two parts: dense yellow cake bottom layer supports a gooey and delicious cream cheese and powdered sugar today layer. This is the classic original, but you can always experiment with it and make other flavors. Last year i made a strawberry cake for a grad party as well as a pumpkin one for Halloween.

I lived in St. Louis a little over ten years and never tried it. Now I'm seeing it everywhere.
