This cake batter recipe is the standard recipe I use for all of my baking. It can be altered in an endless number of ways to make everything from bundt cakes to cinnamon coffee cakes to mini cupcakes.
As this is my first recipe on blog i hope you guys will love to try this at home....
RECIPE
Golden Vanilla Cake
INGREDIENTS
2 cups sugar, preferable baker's sugar (which is a finer than regular granulated sugar)
3 1/4 cups unbleached all purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed and at room temperature
1 1/4 cups milk, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1. Bring butter, milk, and eggs to room temperature.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line pans with parchment paper.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, measure out sugar, flour, baking powder and salt. Using the paddle attachment, mix until combined.
4. Add the butter and mix on low until mixture looks sandy. (It should look like bisquick or cake mix.)
5. Combine the milk and vanilla and add to flour mixture. Mix on low speed 30 seconds and increase to medium and mix another 30 seconds.
6. Add egg one at a time mixing on medium for 30 seconds after each addition.
7. After the last egg, scrape down bowl and mix another 30 seconds.
8. Transfer batter into baking pans. Drop pans on counter a few times to release air bubbles. Bake until golden and toothpick inserted comes out clean. (I didn't read the instructions carefully and baked the batter in two 8" pans instead of three.
