Ok I am running into an issue. I am having problems finding a yellow cake recipie that does not come out as one of my customers says "dense and dry as a brick". Is this a problem for anyone else?
This is becomming an issue and I was hoping that someone could point me in the direction of a spongey, moist, yellow cake recipie.
Thanks in adavnce
You can try not cooking it quite as long, subsituting some of the milk for sour cream and/or using some syrup on your layers.
It's so hard sometimes finding a recipe for a specific cake that you really like. I love my chocolate cake recipe, my vanilla cake is good... but not my favorite, I'm always trying out new ones.
I use sylvia weinstocks yellow cake.. the recipe should be here somewhere..
its nto as dense a "butter cake" i call that my yellow an dbutter pound when I am describing it
my yellow cake recipe:
Buttermilk yellow cake
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs, separated
3 cups flour (AP flour but can substitute equal weight of pastry flour)
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cream of tartar
1 cup buttermilk
1.5 tsp vanilla
Cream butter and sugar until light. Add egg yolks, one at a time until well encorporated. Sift dry ingredients. Add alternately with buttermilk/vanilla, starting and ending with dry. Mix only until smooth. Don't overmix. Whip up the whites separately and fold into the batter. Bake in a 9x13 pan at 350' for approximately 25-30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
Thank you all so much for responding. I am intrested in trying some of your suggestions out ASAP and hopefully not end up with a dense dry cake anymore.
Thanks again you all are the best
You could always try DH box mix with one pack dream whip, One pack cook and serve pudding, one cup water, 1/4 cup oil, and 4 large eggs. I've done this and people say it's the best cake they have ever tasted. it's very moist.
