CREAM CHEESE CAKE INGREDIENTS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour three 9-in. round baking pans. In a large bowl, cream butter, shortening and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla. Combine flour and baking soda; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk. Beat until just combined. Stir in coconut and pecans., In another bowl, beat egg whites with clean beaters until stiff but not dry. Fold one-fourth of the egg whites into batter, then fold in remaining whites. Pour into prepared pans., Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 20-25 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely., For frosting, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Beat in confectioners’ sugar and vanilla until fluffy. Stir in pecans. Spread frosting between layers and over top and sides of cake. Refrigerate.

Steps:

• Grease a 9 x 13 pan and pre-heat oven to 350. For the filling, beat together cream cheese and sugar.
• Once creamed, add vanilla and egg. Set aside.
• For the cake, in another bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• In a separate bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, eggs and vanilla.
• Add the flour mixture alternately with the sour cream into the wet batter until well blended.
• Pour half the batter into a well-greased 9x13 pan.
• Spread the cream cheese filling over the batter.
• Place about a pint of blueberries, I use a little more, over the cream cheese mixture. Cover the cream cheese layer with remaining batter.
• For the crumb topping, using a pastry blender combine cold butter, flour and sugar until the mixture looks like small peas.
• Sprinkle the crumb topping over the top of the cake. Bake in a 350 oven for 55- 60 minutes. Test in center with toothpick. DO NOT LET THE TOP GET BROWN! It will be overbaked and dry!
• Let cool, cut and enjoy!!
