Cake White plain and simple

This is real Cake. A bit more Cakey than boxes. (More dense)

In the picture, I only made 1/2 recipe, and made it in a 12” round cake pan and frosted it and cut it into quarters and stacked them up. That is what you see.. you can do this in a 9x 13 casserole pan or 2 8”-9” cake pans.

This goes well with butter cream frosting and just a sprinkle of nutmeg on top.

Moms White cake

2 1/4 c Flour.
1 tsp Salt.
1 1/3 c Sugar.
3 tsp Baking Powder.
1/2 c Shortening (I use Butter.)
1 c Milk.
1 Tsp Vanilla.
2 Eggs

I know this doesn’t make sense but it is written this way.

Sift dry ingredients into a bowl. Add Shortening, 2/3 c milk, and Vanilla. Speed 2 in Kitchen Aid for 1 min. Stop. Add remaining milk and Eggs. Speed 2 …30 sec. Stop. Scrape bowl, Turn to speed 6 and beat 1 min. Pour Batter into2 greased and floured 8”-9” cake pans. Convection Oven. 350° Or regular Oven 375° 20-25 min

Check for doneness.

I’ve had this recipe for almost 40 yrs . And before that…mom had it for years as well. So no telling,,,but it’s at least 40 and was for the Kitchen Aid stand mixer K45SS.
