Dear readers,
Sorry for the long absence.It has been a while since I post on the blog.I was too busy with my little daughter.So.I could not post properly.
After a while I started to get a feeling that I have to start again with a good recipe.
Today is my sweet daughter's birthday.I did a cake for her.I start blogging with this beautiful cake :)
Ingredients:
- Butter - 1 cup
- Sugar- 2 cups
- All purpose flour(Maida)- 3 cups
- Eggs - 4 cups
- Milk - 1 cup
- Vanilla Extract- 2 tsp
- Baking powder - 1 tbsp
- 2 9*3 inch cake pans
- Star tip
- Even bake strips( to bake the cake evenly)
- Ready to use Butter cream
Direction:
To make a cake :
Preheat the oven to 350F.Soak Wilton Bake even strips in water.
Lightly butter and flour the cake pans.
You could use electric mixer or hand mixer.
Since I don't have both of them,I used our regular blender.
Blend butter(room temperature) until it becomes fluffy.
Gradually add sugar and blend well.Beat well for 5 minutes until it gets fluffy.
Add vanilla extract.Add 1 egg at a time and blend well.
After adding all eggs,blend them for 5 minutes.
Mix sifted all purpose flour and baking powder.
Add flour in three stages and milk in two stages.(F-M-F-M-F)
Once added everything,blend them well for 10 minutes.
Cover the pans with strips.
Divide them into two parts and pour them into the cake pan.
Bake it in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes.
To decorate:
Make your own butter cream recipe or I bought ready to use Butter cream recipe.Mix color whatever you want.
Place a cake in a base( I used our regular serving tray).
Apply the icing on top and place another cake on top of the icing.Icing the whole cake evenly.
With a big star tip,make swirls like rose around the cake.
