With the new season of the Cake Boss on TV, I have been watching too many cake shows and craving wedding cake..........it is my absolute favorite!!!!
Noah, Hunter and Dallas were staying over last night and I decided to make a cake. I googled how to make a cake taste more like a bakery cake, soooooo..............
CAKE
1 Duncan Hines white cake mix
substituted milk instead of water
instead of oil, I used real butter and used 1.5 times what was called for
I added 2 extra egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
Baked as directed.
BUTTERCREAM FROSTING
6 cups of confectioners sugar
6 cups of confectioners sugar
4 sticks of butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
2-3 tbsp milk
whipped it on high until fluffy
I used square cake pans and cut each layer in half because I LOVE buttercream. I made the filling between the layers too thick, and did not have enough to really frost the sides very nicely. It tasted good, but - even for me who loves buttercream - it was WAY too much frosting.
The cake was yummy though.
