Neiman Marcus Cake

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen?  Neiman Marcus Cake!  Repeat after me, “Butter is my friend. Butter is my new best friend.” One bite of these sweet cream butter bars and you’ll swear they came from a French bakery. Look no further than the Neufchâtel cheese filling for confirmation. I always serve this cake with fresh fruit for the ultimate pâtisserie experience.

  7. Butter has always been a family favorite. I remember when my daughter was little, we went out to eat and when the bread came, her little face lit up as she squealed “Buuuuuttttter!!”.
