  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease two 8” (23 cm) cake pans.
  • Beat oil and sugars together in a large bowl of an electric mixer until combined. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

  • Bake in preheated oven 40 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean.
  • Cool in pans on wire cooling rack for 20 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely on wire cooling rack.
  • Icing: Cream butter and cream cheese in a large bowl of an electric mixer until combined. Add icing sugar, one cup (250 mL) at a time. Beat well after each addition. Add vanilla. Continue beating until fluffy. Add 1 tbsp (15 mL) milk at a time to thin out icing if necessary.
  • Assembly: Place one cake layer on serving dish. Spread with icing. Top with remaining cake layer. Spread top with remaining icing. Refrigerate until ready to eat.
