Beat butter with cream cheese until soft. Gradually add sugar until blended. Add the vanilla. Put in the eggs, one at a time - beating after each.

Pour into pan and bake in preheated 300 degree oven for 1 hour and 5 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes. Remove from pan.
Aunt Ruth noted that she would start to watch the cake after 40 minutes to ensure it did not burn. A toothpick inserted in the center of the cake should come out clean.
