Step 3: Beat it! Whip it!
(At this point you will probably want to preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 176.7 degrees Celsius). Honestly, you could have begun preheating the oven earlier, but my oven works fast and so does my guilt of wasting energy.)
You're almost done making the cake! Hooray.
Now you need to beat the cream cheese until it is silky smooth. Once it has reached that level you can add in the two remaining eggs and the 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Whip it all together.
If you are using a mixer and not your Iron Man strength, you will want to lower the speed of it as you add in the powdered sugar. Slowly add it in so that you can ensure that it all gets well incorporated into the mix.
About halfway through the box of powdered sugar it will start to get really hard to mix the ingredients together. You'll need to add some moisture.
Melt the last stick of butter and now alternate between adding in the butter and adding in the remaining powdered sugar.
Keep on beating it together and keep on singing to that old radio playing great 80's tunes.
Once everything has mixed together (and your throat is starting to hurt due to all that singing) you can add in that one teaspoon of vanilla. Mix it one more time and voilà ! You are practically done...but you have a few more steps to go through before you can stuff your face with the wonderful creation.

How much powdered sugar do you use? We buy bulk bags, so we can't go by the "whole box" measurement.

A box of powdered sugar is 16 oz. or 2 cups. Do not pack down when measuring sugar into cup.
