The ';tangy'; cream cheese frosting flavor is a real hit on top of all kinds of cakes.Have any good vanilla cake recipes???
Take a standard yellow cake mix with pudding added and add 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1 T vanilla. Bake according to package directions. Instead of a traditional frosting, make a streusal out of flour, butter, brown sugar, and candied pecans to place on your batter. After it cooks, make a cream cheese glaze, if you want, and pour over the top. This cake is yummy!
