Step 1

Preheat oven to Lightly mist a 10 inch tube pan with oil and flour. I use Pam for baking.To soften the cream cheese either warm in microwave or allow to reach room temperature. Makes for easy mixing.

Step 2

Place cake mix, soften cream cheese, eggs, water, sugar, oil, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Blend for 1 minute on low. Scrap down sides and blend for 2 minutes on medium. The batter should be well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

Step 3

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown and spring back when lightly pressed.

Step 4

Slice the cake when still a little warm. Great with coffee!
