Recipe
1. Grease and flour a 8X11 inch baking pan.

3. Disregard instructions on cake mix box, you're not going to bake a cake. Mix dry cake mix (minus 1 cup dry mix) and melted butter. Add egg and mix till it holds

4. Pat crust mixture into pan with your fingers, coating bottom and up the sides about 1 inch.
5. Mix together the filling ingredients, along with the reserved 1 cup of dry cake mix, and pour into the crust.
6. Mix the topping ingredients (minus the optional nuts) together with a fork or pastry blender till mixture is crumbly. Mix in nuts, if desired.
7. Sprinkle topping mixture over filling and bake for 45-60 minutes or until a cake
tester comes out clean.
8. Cool and serve with whipped cream.
