3 c. sugar
3 c. sifted cake flour
Dash of salt
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese (softened)
6 large eggs
1 tbsp. vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Beat butter and cream cheese at medium speed of an electric mixer about 2 minutes or until creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating 5 to 7 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating just until yellow disappears. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing at low speed just until blended; stir in vanilla. Pour into a greased and floured 10 inch tube pan.

Bake at 325°F for 1 1/2 hours or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes; remove from pan, and cool completely on wire rack.
