APPLE SHEET CAKE WITH CINNAMON CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Prepare the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the center. Butter and flour a 9-by-13-inch glass or light colored metal baking pan.

Mix until the sugar is moistened, then turn the speed up to medium-high and whip until smooth and fluffy.
