Next, add one-third of the milk/egg mix. Continue alternating including the flour and milk mixtures, scraping down the bowl as essential. The batter will appear like this. Put the batter into the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake the layers for 30-35 minutes, until they are well risen and firm.

While the cake cools, make the icing. Begin by integrating the butter and cream cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat until well combined. Slowly include the confectioners' sugar, beating till smooth. Then beat in the vanilla and salt. If the frosting is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk or cream.

You can spread the icing smooth, or swirl it casually with a butter knife. Because it's an all white cake, I like to scatter some joyful nonpareils or confetti sprinkles on the edges for color. Or for a change, try topping the cake with loads of shredded sweetened coconut it's amazing.
