OOEY GOOEY BUTTERCAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray.
• Combine the granulated sugar and butter in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until blended. Add the eggs, vanilla and buttermilk and beat to combine. Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture to the wet mixture in three parts, mixing well between each addition and scraping down the bowl to fully combine. Put the dough in the prepared baking pan and press into an even layer across the bottom.
• For the gooey: Beat together the cream cheese and butter in the cleaned mixer bowl until combined. Using the low stir setting, add the confectioners' sugar and eggs in three parts, alternating between the two and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until combined. Mix in the vanilla and buttermilk. Pour the mixture over the dough in the pan and use a spatula to smooth over the top.
• Bake until the cake has set and the edges are golden brown, 50 to 55 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes, then dust with more confectioners' sugar before serving.

A CANADIAN FOODIE'S ORIGINAL CHEATER TURTLE CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350F; place rack is in middle
• Prepare 9 inch springform cake pan: butter and flour bottom
• Place disc of parchment paper on bottom; butter both sides of it
• Follow directions on box; pour 1/2 batter into springform pan (best to be less than half than more than half)
• Place in oven; bake for 15 minutes (set timer)
• Place all ingredients into small heavy sauce pan; heat, stirring regularly, until caramels are melted and all ingredients fully incorporated into a thick mass
• Prepare the nuts and chocolate so they are ready when the cake comes out of the oven
• Remove cake from oven at 15 minutes; surface tension should be taught
• Starting with chocolate around outer edge of pan and in toward middle, sprinkle completely over cake until covered single layer
• Repeat process with toasted pecans; stir caramel filling and pour along inside of pan rim in the same manner as the chocolate and the nuts, until completely covered with chocolate
• Pour remaining cake batter over caramel filling, ensuring that it is completely covered with batter
• Return cake to oven; bake another 50 to 60 minutes, until toothpick comes out completely clean in the middle: when in doubt, don't take it out.... best to not have middle sink (leave in 5-6 more minutes or up to 60 minutes)
• Remove from oven and rest for 20 minutes on cake rack: set timer for 20 minutes
• Instructions for Storing Cake until Service:
• Cake must still be warm to push toasted pecans vertically against side of caramel filling; pecans of same size look best, spaced at regular intervals (work quickly)
• For easy removal of cake from pan later, set cake on top of large sheet of plastic wrap with spring form bottom still in tact; wrap cake up sides (usually takes 2-3 sheets of wrap), even if still warm and set back into springform pan
• Store in fridge or wrap completely and store in freezer
• Thaw completely, if frozen; remove springform pan
• Set on serving tray or pedestal; dust with icing sugar
• If there is a dip in the cake, fill with toasted pecans; dust with more icing sugar
• Slice and serve with a sprig of mint, a berry, and whipping cream
