Recipe

I frost the cake right in the pan and then cut it into squares for serving. If you want to present a whole cake, then turn it out onto a cookie sheet or board, place a flat serving plate on top, and invert the cake. Then frost.

Prep Time : 20 minutes
Cooking Time : Enough frosting for a 13 × 9-inch cake

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces (½ cup) or half an 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
  • ¼ cup (½ stick) butter, at room temperature
  • 2 cups confectioners sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

Place the cream cheese and butter in a mixing bowl and beat until very smooth. Place the sugar in a sifter or fine-mesh strainer and sift over the cream cheese/butter mixture. Beat by hand or with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla.
