We added this Cream Cheese Frosting and tried piping it over the cake, which didn’t turn out PERFECT because my piping stuff broke, and I just tried to freehand it! HAHA! However.. if you follow us, you know we are not going for perfection, we are going for taste and to enjoy our time in the kitchen. I wasn’t going to remake the entire cake so we just went with it!
⭐TIP
There isn’t a leavening agent in this cake, it is correct as written. The eggs are what makes the cake rise. Also you can use any frosting you like and you can also just put the cream cheese frosting on the entire cake, not use the piping method.
