Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, mix together cake mix, melted butter, and 1 egg. Press this mixture into the bottom of your prepared pan.
In another bowl, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 2 eggs until smooth.
Pour cream cheese mixture over the cake layer in the pan.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Allow to cool completely before cutting. The cake will rise during baking and fall as it cools, hence the name 'Sad Cake'.
