Anyone have a favorite that is stable and moist?? I need a good scratch recipe for a wedding tasting!! I wanted to try a different recipe than the one I have been using.
Thanks for all input
This is my favorite. Very easy - flavorful and moist!

I haven't personally tried this one yet, but it was posted on another thread about great scratch cakes, and people really raved about it.

2 teaspoons baking soda

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Cream Cheese Frosting
Line 3 (9-inch) round cake pans with wax paper; lightly grease and flour wax paper. Set pans aside.
Stir together first 4 ingredients.
Beat eggs and next 4 ingredients at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Add flour mixture, beating at low speed until blended. Fold in carrot and next 3 ingredients. Pour batter into prepared cake pans.
Bake at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Drizzle Buttermilk Glaze evenly over layers; cool in pans on wire racks 15 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool completely on wire racks. Spread Cream Cheese Frosting between layers and on top and sides of cake.
