- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, melted butter, and eggs.

- Set aside about 1 1/2 cups of the mixture, and spread the rest into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Pack down to form a solid crust, getting it as even as possible.
- Spread the cooled Black Currant mixture over the crust.
- Pinch off pieces of the remaining mixture and place evenly over the Black Currant layer.
BAKING
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top is lightly browned.
- Cool in the pan for 1 hour before slicing into bars.
