"The cake was as delicious as it was beautiful. You did a perfect job."

Yellow Cake

My Favorite Yellow Cake Recipe

Makes two 8 or 9 inch round cakes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Pan Prep: I use either a spray oil or crisco to grease the pans well, followed by a dusting of flour, followed by a layer of parchment paper or waxed paper that has been cut to fit the pan. That's it. No need to re-grease and flour the waxed paper as some cookbooks will ask you to do.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks at room temperature)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 5 whole eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside

In the large bowl of an electric mixer beat the butter until soft and smooth. Add the sugar and beat until light and smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beaters several times.

With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and milk, beginning and ending with flour. Stir in the vanilla. At this point you may add flavoring touches if desired.

Divide the batter evenly between the pans. Smooth the batter level, then spread it slightly from the center to the edges.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or just until the tops are springy or a cake tester comes out clean.

Cool the cakes in their pans on a rack for 10 minutes. Then invert onto racks.

Times the recipe by 6 for a wedding cake. I have done that for you below.


Yellow Cake Recipe For A Wedding Cake



Makes two layer 14, 10, 6 inch round cakes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Ingredients

  • 18 cups sifted all-purpose flour
  • 6 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 3 teaspoon salt
  • 3 lbs. unsalted butter
  • 12 cups granulated sugar
  • 30 eggs (separated)
  • 7 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 Tablespoons vanilla extract

Follow the mixing instructions above.

Note You will need a larger mixer for this. Or prepare the batter in batches. Three batches of this recipe times 2 will give you the same amount of batter.


Basic Yellow Cake Recipe Using Yellow Cake Mix



Makes one 10 inch tube cake or two 8 or 9 inch layer cakes

Preheat oven to 325 degrees

Ingredients

  • 1 package plain yellow cake mix
  • 1 package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • Put all ingredients into a mixing bowl. Blend with an electirc mixer on low speed for 1 minute.

    Stop the machine and scrape down the side of the bowl with a rubber spatula.

    Increase the speed to medium for 2 minutes. Scrape the bowl again if needed.

    Pour the batter into the prepared pans. Directions for prepping the pans are above.

    Bake until golden brown and the cake springs back when pressed with your finger. 40- 60 minutes depending on the pans you are using.

    Cool for 20 minutes or so then invert the cakes onto a rack.
