minutes (approximately).Reduce speed to medium;add eggs, one at a
time,scraping the bowl after each addition.Add flour, milk, baking
powder,salt,vanilla and baking soda.

When mixed,divide batter evenly between pans.Push to the edges
(batter is very stiff,almost like a sticky dough).Press with the
side of a spatula to remove air bubbles.Bang each pan a few times on
the counter to level batter.

Bake 25 minutes,or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a
layer comes out clean.Cool cake completely on wire racks.

To make the frosting:With an electric mixer,beat together cream
cheese and butter until smooth.Gradually add powdered sugar and
vanilla;mix well.

To assemble:Slice each cake layer horizontally to make 6 round
layers.Place a layer on a plate,with the cut side up. Spread with
1/3 raspberry preserves.Top with a second layer,cut side down.
Spread with frosting.Repeat with remaining layers.Do NOT spread
jelly on top of last layer.

Frost entire cake smoothly.
