4. Add egg and vanilla. Continue to beat until well mixed.
5. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix the flour mixture and the milk into the butter and egg mixture. Beat until smooth.
6. Grease well a 8-inch (20.5-21 cm) pie dish or cake pan with oil or butter. Pour in the batter and spread out evenly.
7. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Check the center with a toothpick - if it comes out clean it's done! Let cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool completely before frosting, about 1 hour.
8. While the cake is cooking prepare the icing. Let the cream cheese and butter soften a little at room temperature. Put in a bowl and beat/cream until smooth.
