Cool slightly in the pan, then invert the cakes on to a wire rack to finish cooling. - For the frosting: Beat the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the powder sugar. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

Taste after every other addition of the icing sugar to obtain your perfect taste of sweetness. - To assemble, place one of the cakes on a cake plate or stand. Top the first layer of cake with a generous, even layer of frosting. Place in the freezer to firm the frosting, about 10 minutes.
