5th Step

Spread the mixture evenly in the baking dish that has been prepared. Bake for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the dish comes out clean.

6th Step

Allow the cake to settle to room temperature before icing. Prepare the cream cheese frosting as it cools. In a separate basin, whisk the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until velvety and smooth.

7th Step

After the cake has completely chilled, apply the cream cheese frosting on top in an even layer. If desired, use a spatula to create decorative spirals or patterns.

8th Step

Refrigerate the cake for at least one hour before serving for optimal results. This enables the flavors to meld and the buttercream to set gorgeously.
