On the CC Cake Mix Extender recipe, is the flour plain or self rising? This is my first time using it and I don't want to mess it up. Thanks!!

I asked the same question but did not get an answer....so I just guessed and used plain flour with the sour cream. I made cupcakes and they were great. It was my first experience and I will definately use it again. I have always just make pound cakes from scratch.

I have always used plain flour and have never had a problem.

It is all-purpose flour. NOT self rising. I have always used all purpose, some recipes call for cake flour and I use that sometimes too. Hope that helps.

it's all purpose flour

When I recently tried this recipe for the first time, I used "Lily White" All-Purpose flour. It's lighter than regular flour, but not as light as cake flour. It worked great. Cake was dense, but moist & delicious. Using the cake extender recipe is the only way I will ever make a cake again in the future.

i use the extender for all my cakes too...i love it...i use all purpose

i just tried this with my mini Easter egg cakes.....i used all purpose flour.....and then when they were done i laid a heavy cutting board on them to "smush" them....i think i will always use the extender from now on! i was very happy with the taste and consistency.....Donna
