This is one of the most easy and yummy cake recipes you will ever make! Years ago (1986!) one of my dear nursing buddies gave me this recipe. For the frosting she called for 1 whole box of powdered sugar but i like the cream cheese frosting a little tart so I only add half a box. Although it is great to make the cake the day before serving, if you place it in the fridge for 1 hour before icing it is still a fast and easy desert for guests.
