1 cup Miracle Whip light
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar

Tips:

Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.

Bake the cake at the right temperature: The cake should be baked at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Use a good quality cream cheese: For the best results, use a high-quality cream cheese that is smooth and spreadable.

Beat the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy: This will help create a smooth and creamy frosting.

Add the powdered sugar gradually: Adding the powdered sugar gradually will help prevent the frosting from becoming too thick or lumpy.

Flavor the frosting to your liking: You can add vanilla extract, chocolate chips, or other flavorings to the frosting to create a variety of different flavors.
