The Party Pig: Maple Bacon Pecan Gooey Butter Bars

Living just a hop, skip and a jump from the bakery that accidentally whipped up the first Gooey Butter Cake, our Wednesday nights were the highlight of the week. Aunt Sally and Uncle Don would roll in with a fresh gooey masterpiece from the bakery, and we'd all gather at Grandma's, forks at the ready. Over the years, that cake's seen some changes—from added nuts to swapped out flavors—but it never lost its magic. It's the one thing we all agree on, no matter what: Nothing beats a slice of Gooey Butter Cake. This is my spin on the classic and it has been a hit no matter where I take it.
