How to Follow
- Set the oven temperature to 350°F, or 175°C. Prepare a 9-by-13-inch baking pan by greasing and flouring it, or (my favorite time-saver!) line it with parchment paper.
- In a large basin, put the flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt to a consistent mix. Whisk to combine.
- In a another dish, combine the cream cheese, eggs, sour cream, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil; mix until smooth.
- Carefully add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, blending only until incorporated.
- Spoon the batter into the baking dish that has been preheated and use a spatula to level the top.
- To test doneness, stick a toothpick into the middle and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the pick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool entirely on a wire rack in the pan before icing.
For the frosting:
- Step 8: Cream the softened cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl.
- Step 9: Mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla essence gradually until smooth. If the frosting is overly thick, thin it out by adding tablespoons of milk at a time.
Ensure that the cake has cooled completely before icing it. Cut, plate, and then watch as it vanishes!
As an alternative or as a helpful hint, you might add a little lemon zest to the batter.
- A A teaspoon of cinnamon infused into the frosting is the perfect touch for an autumnal twist.
- A A store-bought frosting may do if you’re in a hurry, but the extra effort is always worth it when you make your own.
- A If you aren’t going to serve the cake right away, refrigerate it since the cream cheese icing gets softer with time.
