Step-by-Step Instructions
First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease your baking pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, melted butter, and one egg until everything is just mixed together. This step creates the scrumptious crust that will hold together all the gooey goodness on top! Make sure not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine. Once it’s all combined, press this mixture into the bottom of your greased pan to form an even layer. The texture should feel slightly sticky but manageable.
