I wanted to create a button that had an image and a textblock as content. So I went about looking for an answer and found a post (Reusable Custom Content for Buttons) w

The easiest option would be to just make your UserControl expose a click event, and pass through your Button's click event.

In MyButton's xaml:

In MyButton's code:

public event RoutedEventHandler Click;

void onButtonClick(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.Click != null)
    {
        this.Click(this, e);
    }
}

You can then leave your "implementation" code as-is.
