1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Add eggs one at a time and beat on low for 20 seconds after each addition. Whisk flour and salt, then add to creamed mixture. Beat on low until just incorporated, making sure not to over beat. Prepare the cream cheese layer In a small bowl whip together cream cheese and granulated sugar until creamed, add egg and vanilla extract.
