Directions
Preheat oven. Grease (and flour if you wish) 3 round pans.
Mix flour with baking powder and ½ teaspoons salt. In a large bowl, mixed at high speed beat the butter and 2 cups of sugar until light.
Add 4 eggs, one at a time, and beat after each time you add one.
Continue beating, occasionally scraping bowl.
At low speed, beat in flour mixture, in fourths alternating with milk (in thirds) beginning and ending with the flour mix.
Add vanilla.
Beat until just smooth, about 1 min. Pour into prepared pans, and bake for 25 to 30 min.
Cool pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Remove from pans and cool thoroughly.
Prepare the filling: simply whip the cream, adding the sugar and vanilla, and keep cool until the cake has cooled Make the frosting: cream the cream cheese and sugar together.
