Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

  4. Pour dry mixture into mixing bowl; mix until combined and batter forms.
  5. Transfer batter onto prepared baking sheet and spread with spatula. Bake 13-15 minutes. The cake is done when center springs back while lightly pressed.
  6. While cake bakes, prepare cream cheese frosting. Mix together butter and cream cheese in stand mixer bowl. Add powdered sugar and vanilla; beat until fluffy and smooth.
