🧀 4 oz Cream Cheese
🍂 Brown Sugar (quantity not specified)
Instructions
1- Preheat Your Oven:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the cake bakes evenly.

- Mix until the ingredients are well integrated and the mixture is creamy.
4- Combine the Mixtures:
- Gently fold the sweet potato mixture into the cake batter, ensuring an even blend.
5- Prepare the Baking Dish:
- Grease a baking dish with butter or a non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
6- Layer the Cake Batter:
- Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle a layer of brown sugar evenly over the batter.
- Pour the remaining cake batter on top, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle another layer of brown sugar on top of the final batter layer.
7- Bake the Cake:
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
8- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the cake to cool in the dish for about 10 minutes before serving.
- Slice into squares or slices and enjoy while warm.
