         Title: Original St. Louis Gooey Butter Cake (Heimburger Bakery)   
    Categories: Cakes, Desserts, Dairy   
         Yield: 9 Servings   
       
   MMMMM---------------------------CRUST--------------------------------   
         1 c  A-P flour   
         3 tb Sugar   
       1/3 c  Butter; softened   
      
   MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------   
     1 1/4 c  Sugar   
       3/4 c  Butter; softened   
         1 lg Egg   
         1 c  A-P flour   
       2/3 c  Evaporated milk   
       1/4 c  Light corn syrup (Karo)   
         1 ts Vanilla   
              Powdered sugar   
       
     Set oven to 350oF/175oC.   
        
     Grease or coat a 9" x 9" x 2" metal baking pan with   
     cooking spray.   
        
     TO PREPARE CRUST: In mixing bowl, combine flour and   
     sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs   
     and starts to cling. Pat into the bottom of the greased   
     baking pan.   
        
     TO PREPARE FILLING: In mixing bowl, beat sugar and butter   
     until light and fluffy. Mix in egg until combined. Add   
     alternately the flour and evaporated milk, mixing after   
     each addition. Add corn syrup and vanilla. Mix at medium   
     speed until well blended. Pour batter into crust-lined   
     baking pan. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.   
        
     Bake at 350oF/175oC for 25 to 30 minutes or until cake   
     is nearly set. Do not overcook. Cool in pan. Dust with   
     additional powdered sugar.   
        
     NOTES: Believe it or not, Gooey Butter Cake is not a   
     Southern recipe nor is it originally a Paula Deen recipe   
     even though it is featured as one of her recipes on Food   
     Network and in her new cookbook, Southern Cooking Bible.   
        
     Gooey Butter Cake originated in St. Louis, MO, in the   
     1930s. The original bakery, owned by a John Hoffman,   
     hired a new baker who accidentally inverted two   
     ingredients resulting in a gooey cake that became a best   
     seller in bakeries throughout the St. Louis area.   
        
     I dusted prior to baking and again after cooling.   
        
     TASTE TEST RESULTS: The Original Gooey Butter Cake is a   
     denser and less sweet version from the ones most of us   
     are used to eating. When I make this again, I would make   
     sure not to cook it as long so that it remains gooey.   
     Those who aren't big Gooey Butter Cake fans seemed to   
     prefer this one.
