Combine all ingredients in bowl. Beat till mixed with hand mixer.- Butter 2 8" round cake pans. Pour the mixture into them. Bake for 50 minutes, testing with a toothpick to make sure they are cooked (if they are wet when inserted and removed, continue baking for a few minutes).
- Remove the cakes from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before removing them from the molds, then take them out and let them cool. When cooled add a layer of cream cheese frosting. Top with remaining cake layer and slather remaining frosting over entire cake!
