Bake the cake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Remove the cake from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the cream cheese frosting:
In a large bowl, beat together the butter and cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, a cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
Decorate the cake
