Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

In a large bowl, cream together the 1 cup of softened unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Add the 2 large eggs, one at a time, ensuring to mix well after each addition.

Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until combined.

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing only until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.

Press the prepared cake batter evenly into the bottom of the greased and floured 9x13 inch baking pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter, 2 cups powdered sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until the mixture is smooth.

Carefully pour the gooey layer mixture evenly over the cake batter in the pan.

Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F for 30-35 minutes. The cake is done when the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still retains a gooey consistency.

Allow the gooey butter cake to cool completely before slicing and serving.
