Step-by-Step Instructions
First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In my experience, having the oven nice and warm before you start mixing is key to ensuring your cake bakes evenly. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and milk. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. The sweet aroma of the sugar merging with the cream cheese makes my mouth water just thinking about it! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
