- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the frosting:

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt.

To make the frosting, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
To assemble the cake, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of frosting on top of the cake. Place the second cake layer on top of the frosting and spread the remaining frosting on top and around the sides of the cake.
