sugar and cream cheese until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the
flour, salt, vanilla bean, and egg yolks, beaten lightly, and combine the
mixture well. Stir in the sour cream. In a bowl, beat the egg whites until
they just hold stiff peaks and fold them into the cream cheese mixture

the cake rise evenly. Bake the cake in the middle of a preheated 350f oven
