yesterday, the kids decided they wanted a perry traditional sunday night dinner. that translates into cake and popcorn.
now, i've had problems with my homemade cakes lately. they are flat, dense, and dry. in speaking with my mom about my cake woes, she told me that the process is just as important as the ingredients. so, i followed the process to a t yesterday.
the differences in the cakes was amazing! this one was tall, light, fluffy, moist, and tasted like a cake should!
i'm lazy. so i've just been throwing all the ingredients into the mixing bowl, and calling it good. i also no longer use regular shortening or real eggs, i use dehydrated. that being said, you can't cream powdered shortening, and you can't whip powdered eggs into egg white peaks. so for this recipe i had to use butter, and real eggs. the extra work was worth it though!
