Vanilla Cream cheese Cake

Not much of a baker myself, I need a strong reason to bake a cake at home and what better than my little one 6 month birthday or half birthday. I wanted to make it special for us and had a little celebration with papa mumma and baby. Some balloons, Mexican Enchilada for dinner and the Cake of course. Little one enjoyed playing with the balloons, while Papa and mumma enjoyed the delicacies.

Vanilla Cream Cheese Cake

A simple eggless vanilla cake with cream cheese frosting was a simple one to bake. I actually enjoyed it and am going to try more baking and improve my skills. You can use the ready cake mix for the base if lazy, but baking it from scratch gives another level of satisfaction.
