Sift flour and baking soda together, add to mix.
Pour into ungreased 9 x 13 baking dish.
Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes.
While cake is baking, make topping.
Cream together cream cheese, sugar, butter and vanilla* at high speed.
While cake is warm, not hot, put topping on cake.
*I always bake with Mexican vanilla, it has a very different taste than regular vanilla extract. Try it and let me know! You will not be disappointed, I promise!
