Yellow Cake and Buttercream Frosting
Remember a few posts back when I mentioned finding a recipe for yellow cake - one that promised you would never need a box mix again. Well, I made it for my birthday. Yes, you read that right; when you're a mother of small children you have to orchestrate your own birthday. But no complaints, I had two lovely and very enthusiastic helpers (or taste testers, rather).
Any-hoo, I made the cake and I think I agree that it's pretty great. My sister, who doesn't like cake, had a piece, devoured it and said she loved it. A box mix really is lighter but this recipe it the best I've tried to date. Here's the link for the recipe: http://shine.yahoo.com/shine-food/only-yellow-cake-recipe-youll-ever-135900849.html
And here's a Bonus... A tried and true Vanilla Buttercream Frosting curtesy of Clueless in the Kitchen by Evelyn Raab.
In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat together:
1 cup butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups powdered sugar
2 tbsp milk
Enjoy!!
