LOUIS GOOEY BUTTER CAKE Categories: Cakes Yield: 9 Servings 1 c All-purpose flour 3 tb Sugar 1/3 c Butter or margarine 1 1/4 c Sugar 3/4 c Butter or margarine 1/4 c Light corn syrup 1 Egg 1 c All-purpose flour 2/3 c Evaporated milk Powdered sugar; optional Recipe by: Midwest Living, October 1994 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup flour and 3 tablespoons sugar. Cut in 1/3 cup butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs and starts to cling. Pat in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan. For the filling, beat the 1 1/4 cup sugar and 3/4 cup butter until combined. Beat in the corn syrup and egg just until combined. Add the 1 cup flour and evaporated milk alternately, beating just until combined (batter will appear slightly curdled). Pour into crust-lined pan and bake for about 35 minutes, or until cake is nearly firm when you shake it. Let cool in pan on a wire rack. Remove to a serving plate; sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar, if you like. -----
