Provided by Bakerella

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup (2 sticks) butter (room temperature)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1b. 10X powdered sugar
1-3 teaspoons milk, half and half or cream
1 cup (2 sticks) of butter (room temperature)
2 cups of sugar
4 eggs (room temperature)
3 cups of sifted self-rising flour (White Lily)
1 cup of whole milk (room temperature)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (McCormicks)
1/2 teaspoon butter flavoring

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grease and flour (3) 8-inch cake pans.
  • Using a mixer, cream butter until fluffy. Add sugar and continue to cream for about 7 minutes.
  • Add eggs one at a time. Beat well after each egg is added.
  • Add flour and milk (alternating to creamed mixture), beginning and ending with flour.Add vanilla and butter flavoring to mix; until just mixed.
  • Divide batter equally into three cake pans.
  • Hold each layer about 3 inches above your counter and carefully drop the pans flat onto counter several times to ensure release of any air bubbles. This will help you have a more level cake.
  • Bake for 25 - 30 minutes (depending on your oven) until done.
  • Cool in pans for 5 - 10 minutes.
  • Remove and immediately wrap each layer in plastic wrap to seal in moisture. Cool completely on wire racks.
  • Buttercream: Using a mixer, cream softened butter and vanilla until smooth.
  • Add sugar gradually, allowing butter and sugar to cream together before adding more.
  • If you want your frosting a little creamier, add a teaspoon of milk at a time and beat on high until you get the right consistency.
  • Then, just use icing colors to tint the frosting the color of your choice.
  • This is usually just enough for a 2-layer cake, so I would recommend doubling this for a three-layer. But, I like a lot of frosting.
  • Cake assembly: Unwrap first layer and using a serrated knife, level off the top of your cake. Place layer onto your dish. Take a straw and poke holes into the layer.
  • Using your spray bottle, spray top of layer several times with simple syrup**; enough to give it a little moisture. Be careful - don't add too much.
  • Add a layer of frosting to your bottom layer. Repeat on second and third layers.Frost the sides.

THE PERFECT MOIST YELLOW CAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



The Perfect Moist Yellow Cake Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup (2-sticks) butter, room temperature
2 cups sugar
4 eggs, room temperature
3 cups of sifted self-rising flour (I prefer King Arthur Flour Unbleached Self-Rising Flour or you can use White Lily)
1 cup whole milk, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon butter flavoring (I use LorAnns Buttery Sweet Dough Flavor that I buy on Amazon.com)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 3 (8-inch) cake pans. NOTE: For cupcakes, this recipe makes 2 dozen cupcakes; fill the cupcake liners to half way only. (I speak from a messy experience) Using a mixer, cream butter until fluffy. Add sugar and continue to cream for about 7 minutes. Add eggs one at a time. Beat well after each egg is added. Add flour and milk (alternating to creamed mixture), beginning and ending with flour. Add vanilla and butter flavoring to mix; until just mixed. Divide batter equally into three cake pans (or I use a mini-bundt pan or cupcakes are fine, too) Hold each layer about 3 inches above your counter and carefully drop the pans flat onto counter several times to ensure release of any air bubbles. This will help you have a more level cake. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes (depending on your oven) until done. For cupcakes or mini bundts, baking time is between 12 to 18 minutes. Check for a light golden color and use a toothpick for doneness. If a few crumbs stick to the toothpick, it's baked. If the toothpick comes out with dough, bake for a few more minutes. Cool in pans for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove and immediately wrap each layer in plastic wrap to seal in moisture. Cool completely on wire racks. Once cooled, you are ready to assemble your cake. Tips for a moist layer cake: Here's a little trick to add moisture into your layers: Combine 1 cup of sugar and 2 cups of water. Bring to boil and boil for approximately 3 minutes. Let cool. Pour liquid into a spray bottle or pouring bottle. Cake assembly: Unwrap first layer and using a serrated knife, level off the top of your cake. Place layer onto your dish. Take a straw and poke holes into the layer. Using your spray bottle, spray top of layer several times; enough to give it a little moisture. Be careful - don't add too much. Add a layer of frosting to your bottom layer. Repeat on second and third layers. Frost the sides.

Time 1h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup butter, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 egg yolks
3 eggs
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350°F Coat 9x13 pan with butter and flour, and tap out any excess flour. Set aside.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a small bowl and whisk break up any lumps. Set aside.
  • Place butter in the bowl and mix on medium-high speed until fluffy and light in color, about 3 minutes. Add sugar and vanilla, and continue to beat another 5 minutes. Add yolks one at a time, letting each incorporate fully before adding the next. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add whole eggs in the same manner, allowing 1 minute between additions. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the paddle.
  • Add 1/2 of the flour mixture, and turn the mixer to low speed, mixing until the flour is just incorporated. Add 1/2 of the milk, and mix until just incorporated. Continue with remaining flour mixture and milk, until all ingredients are incorporated and smooth.
  • Pour in prepared pan and bake until cake edges slightly pull away from the pan and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out dry with just a few crumbs, about 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let cool on a wire rack, about 10 to 15 minutes. Run a knife around the perimeter of cake, and turn out onto the rack to cool completely (at least 1 1/2 hours) before frosting.
