Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

    Mix Together

    Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare the rest of the recipe.

Filling Preparation

    Mix Cream Cheese Filling

    In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.

  2. 6

    Whip the Heavy Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.

    Pour half of the base mixture into a greased baking dish. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the base, then top with the remaining base mixture.

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
