• Pay close attention to the recipe. When baking, exact measurements ARE important.
• When a recipe says to alternate adding in flour and milk - do it. This gives lightness and
moistness to your cake. Otherwise, you will have a heavy, brick cake.
• Separate your eggs before adding into the batter. Add in the beaten whites as directed for the
eggs. Beat the yolks and add into the milk. Add the milk/yolks in by alternating with the
flour.
• Sift the flour before assembling your batter. This introduces oxygen and lightness into the
batter early on.
• Half the shortening can be substituted with either margarine, butter or applesauce. This
preserves moistness and richness but removes some of the weight and bad fats.
YELLOW CAKE
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup shortening
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 whole eggs
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9x13 inch pan. Mix
together the flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, cream sugar and shortening until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time,
beating thoroughly after each addition. Add flour mixture alternately with milk, beating just
to combine. Finally, stir in vanilla. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted
into the cake comes out clean.
