Spiced Gingerbread Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

ADVERTISEMENT

  1. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 3: Make the Cream Cheese Frosting

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, milk, and a pinch of salt, adjusting the milk as needed to achieve your desired frosting consistency.

Step 4: Assemble the Cake

  1. Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of cream cheese frosting over the top.
  2. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining cream cheese frosting.
  3. Optional: Decorate with a sprinkle of cinnamon, candied ginger, or even a drizzle of caramel for an extra touch of flavor and festivity.
