Pumpking Gooey Butter Cake

I've taken a little hiatus from blogging the last few months. My real job has been a little hectic lately but tis the holiday season and the best time to blog! I've been pumped up with pumpkin, holly, and spiced things with the kick off being Paula Deen's uber yummy Gooey Butter Cake. Is it cheesecake? Pumpkin pie? or Cake? Neither yet all three in one! No tweaks to this because it's perfectly sinful as is.  Enjoy kiddies...
