Missouri has a specialty called gooey butter cake. A friend at deer camp brought this cake up over the weekend and I couldn't resist it! I was told the recipe is from Paula Deen and I went on a mission to find it once I came back to the modern world. Read more I have already had requests to have this at Thanksgiving! I would describe the cake as a sheet cake that tastes just like a very rich pumpkin pie. Enjoy! See less
