Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups of flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract and cream cheese until smooth.

Notes
For best results, use room temperature ingredients and do not overmix the batter. Check for doneness a few minutes before the baking time is complete.
