Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). The first step is to prepare the cream cheese layer. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with granulated sugar until it’s smooth and creamy. Then, add in the egg and vanilla extract, blending until everything is well incorporated. Once the mixture is fluffy and light, you can set it aside while you prepare the cranberry layer.
