Ingredients

Cheesecake Layer

• 3 8 ounce packages cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Cake Layers

• 1 6.25 ounce package Radiant Red cake mix, baked to package instructions (2 eggs, oil, and water)
• 1 6.25 ounce package Aqua Blue cake mix, baked to package instructions (2 eggs, oil, and water)

Frosting

• 8 ounce packages cream cheese softened
• ½ cup butter softened
• 4 cups powdered sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla

Instructions

Start by lining your 8-inch round cake m=pan with parchment paper. You will want to place it on the bottom and sides.
Cream your cream cheese and sugar until smooth. I used a hand mixer for this.
Now in a stand mixer or with hand mixer you will want to whip your heavy cream until it is thick.
Stir your whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture along with the vanilla.
Pour cheesecake into the lined pan and cover and place in the fridge for up to 12 hours or overnight.
Now you will want to start working on your cakes. You will prepare your cake mixes according to the package. You will make 1 red cake and 1 blue cake. Use an 8 inch pan.
Once your cakes are cooled completely you can cover until you are ready to assemble.
Start by layering your cake. Start with either the red or the blue cake layer, and top with cheesecake layer. Now place the other cake on top.
Prepare your frosting by adding your softened cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and slowly add in your powdered sugar. Once creamy liberally apply frosting to the cake.
You can top with sprinkles if you would like.

Notes

Store your cheesecake cake in the fridge, as the cheesecake layer needs to be refrigerated.
