I'm from St. Louis, gooey butter cake is one of the things I miss most about home! I always have to get some when I visit. good!!! Also, you should generously sprinkle the top with powdered sugar right after taking it out of the oven.
Now just make toasted ravioli and St. Louis sticky BBQ pork steaks 😋

the comment section is always so wholesome for these local recipe videos. it’s the best part seeing the mentioned community gather down here. lol

Fun fact-Jenna Fischer, Phyllis Smith and Ellie Kemper all on the Office and all from STL, had a bake off to see who made the best gooey butter cake.

As a lifelong St Louis resident, it’s so weird to me that gooey butter cake isn’t just something everyone knows about.

This needs a strong cup of unsweetened coffee as accompaniment.

In college I had a professor who was born in the Bush in Kenya. He came to America and was able to eventually get his masters and PhD in St Louis. He never knew his exact age or birthday so our class had a birthday party for him and I made the St Louis Gooey Butter cake for his "birthday."

Amazing amount of us St. Louisans here. The best cookies are gooey butter cookies from Schnucks. There was a pack of them under the tree for my son...already gone and he didn't even save me a bite 😋

I love gooey butter cake! I can't eat more than a bite because I'm diabetic. But, I make it for other people. Thanks Emmy!

my local Bakery here in the St. Louis area just started shipping these! If you're interested, it's Russel's Cafe in Fenton, MO

While you’re cooking St. Louis why don’t you try doing some toasted ravioli!!! I have been there a couple of times and it is truly their signature dish

[tomrexer]

Happy holidays everyone!! Or as we say in Norway: God Jul😊🎄❤

This was a staple of my childhood when ever we would go visit my mother’s family in St. Louis. They would buy it from the neighborhood German bakery but it was always topped with powdered sugar.

Being from St. Louis, toasted ravioli is my favorite. So now I have to make my own. Buy a good frozen ravioli (beef filling only), let thaw then toss lightly in flour, dip in a beaten egg with some water, shake off excess and then toss in Italian style bread crumbs. Fry in about 1 inch oil, such as vegetable or peanut, turning as needed until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese. Serve with a good marinara sauce...NOT Ragu or Prego, etc....something good like Raos, etc.

i feel like she will become that one grandma who always has baked cookies done for their grandchildren every time they visit her.

Emmy: Let's make sure we get every bit of this and not waste things.
Other YouTubers: Leaves enough for at least 3 servings in the bowl and discards driving us all insane.

[mandylou]

I love that Emmy actually scrapes the bowl clean. It drives me batty when I watch other cooking videos and they leave half the batter is still stuck to the bowl 😂

Ooey Gooey Butter

Ate this once a month for 18 years. My family lived in Missouri then moved to Montana 10 years ago. All everyone wanted for their birthday was this.

It’s been almost 10 years since I’ve had it.

I’m from St. Louis and I have made this several ways. I’ve made it with chocolate mix with cocoa and coffee in the top part, lemon mix with lemon in top and spice mix with pumpkin in the top. I also love dark chocolate base with vanilla top and dark chocolate chips. I do not make it with that much powdered sugar though. It’s just too much. I’m so happy you tried this!!!

[ogivecrush]
