Yum Yum Cake

This is a snack cake that in the original recipe was mixed right in the baking pan.  I prefer to mix it up in a bowl.  Works either way.

1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 - 8 oz can fruit cocktail (undrained)
1/2 cup chopped nuts
cream cheese frosting

Combine all ingredients (except frosting), mix well.

Pour into ungreased 8-inch square cake pan.

Bake at 350F for 30-40 minutes. Check center, toothpick should come out clean.


Cream Cheese Frosting

1/4 cup butter, softened
1 - 3 oz package cream cheese, softened
1 cup icing sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Blend together. Cool cake about 10 minutes and frost while still slightly warm. This is one of the moistest cakes you'll ever make.  Even after a week (if you still have some left) it's just as moist as the first day.

Serves 9
