Cream Cheese Sheet Cake

In a large bowl, beat together sugar, 1 cup butter, 8 oz. cream cheese and eggs until well combined. Add in 2 teaspoons vanilla and beat for about another minute. In a small bowl add flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Add the flour mixture, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Spread batter into a 11×17 inch pan with sides. Bake at 350ºF for about 20 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.

For the frosting, beat the remaining 1/2 cup butter and 4 oz. cream cheese until smooth. Add milk and the remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 cup powdered sugar, beating until smooth. Add the remaining powdered sugar, 1 cup at time until desired consistency. Spread over cake and cut into bars. Refrigerate any leftovers.
