Beat the Cream Cheese and Butter:
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add Powdered Sugar and Flavorings:
Gradually add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, and continue beating until smooth and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, and beat for another minute to combine.
Frost the Cake:
Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate or cake stand. Spread a generous amount of cream cheese frosting over the top.
Place the second cake layer on top, and frost the top and sides of the entire cake with the remaining frosting.
Optional Garnishes:
You can sprinkle chopped walnuts or pecans over the top of the cake for extra crunch and decoration, or pipe a decorative border around the edges with any leftover frosting.
