I bake my cakes 20-35 minutes depending on the pan size...usually if the cake is starting to pull away from the sides, it's a good indicator that the cake is done. I think my cakes usually cool 30-45 minutes before I wrap them up and then freeze them...I find they only dry out on me when they are thawing when I haven't kept them covered while thawing out.

Mouse, do you freeze the cakes until they are completely hard? If so, do you let them thaw completely back out before you frost and decorate them? Do you not ever have a problem with condensation on the sides?

Cakeatty, I have doubled the DW recipe on many occasions and have never had a problem. I learned of the recipe from my Wilton instructor, who uses it for all her cakes. I love the simplicity of it. I have tried it on all sorts of flavors-white,chocolate, strawberry,butter and have always been pleased.

Mkight, thanks so much for the new recipe idea. I'm all for anything that will stop me from having yucky dry white cakes! My CC buddies are absolutely my lifesavers!
