Easy and super good. Would be great with a glass of iced tea and a discussion on The Help, an incredible book about life in the South in the 1960's as told from the maids' point of view. Then have another piece while you are cleaning up after your messy friends left. If they were very messy, have two.
1 package lemon cake mix
1/3 cup oil
2 eggs
8 oz. package cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar
2Tbs. fresh lemon juice
Preheat oven to 350. You'll need an ungreased 13x9 pan.
Combine mix, oil and 1 egg two minutes on low speed. Reserve one cup of the mixture. Put the rest in the pan and pat down. Bake for 15 minutes. In the meantime, mix the cream cheese on low for 30 seconds. Add juice, sugar and 1 egg. Beat 2 minutes. Spread onto the crust, which may still be a bit gummy. Top with reserved cake mix. Bake 15 minutes and cool. Keep in the refrigerator.
