    This recipe is my favorite fall cake. It's easy; I added everything together before I realized that there were steps, and it was still wonderful. Got rave reviews from guests.

    Made this using an 11" springform pan and made some modifications and it was terrific! I used a spice cake crust, about 1.5 cups of powdered sugar, 1.5 tsp. cinnamon, 1 tsp. ginger, 1/8 tsp. cloves and maybe 1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg and it was great. I baked it at 350 CONVECTION for about 50 minutes and made it one day in advance. The next time I made it I used all the same modifications but used a 10" springform and 6 mini-cheesecake (1" or so pans and baked the larger for about 45 and the smaller for about 15 at 350 convection. Great flavor, not to sweet. I look forward to making the other variations as well.

    My family loves this recipe .It's so easy to change it and make it your own. My daughter loves to try new things with it. She once added gummie bears. The ones that like gummies like it. I like using spice cake with pineapple and white chocolate. I'm alwys asked to bring one to any get togeather i go to.

    Sooo good! But I'm not a pumpkin person so I make sweet potato gooey butter cake instead. I take a can of the sweetened yams (drain the syrup and mash them with a potato masher. If you like sweet potato pie you'll love it!!!

    This recipe is divine. Everyone that eats it LOVES it even when they dont like pumpking!
    The only thing I do is half the powdered sugar, it is still crazy sweet, can't imagine if I added the full amount.
    It will look like the topping is not done when you take it out of the oven but after you let it sit, it comes out perfectly. Actually, sometimes it even tastes better the next day.

    I already love Gooey Butter Cake, so when I saw this I decided to make it. I made this for Thanksgiving, and I ran out of time and could not make a pumpkin pie, and guess what! No one even missed the pie, this was so good, and very much like pumpkin pie, I don't know if I will ever make pumpkin pie again on Thanksgiving. I will probably just make this cake instead. Extremely good, and to me a lot less work : I did forget half the butter at first, so I just poured it over the crust and into the filling and mixed lightly, and it still was great :

    These were delicious, especially the next day because I think all the flavors mixed well together. However, I had to increase the baking time by almost 30 minutes to get it to be done, and it was still gooey. The bottom of the crust burned so I cut away the burnt bottoms. This is delicious warmed up the next day with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. YUM! Next time, I'll decrease the butter in the filling to 1/2 a stick so the baking time will be less.
