Cake Baking?

We love this recipe from the King Arthur flour company.. It comes out perfect every time..

One thing we have discovered is that if you will use 6 egg yolks.. it comes out even more moist!

could believe this was made from scratch.

I got my cupcake recipe from allrecipes.com, and it is AMAZING! I make homemade peanut butter icing (from Barefoot Contessa) to go on top, and YUM YUM YUM! I make them all the time for friends because they are so requested. I figure it probably works for cake too! Here it is:

Ingredients

* 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
* 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
* 1/8 teaspoon salt
* 3 tablespoons butter, softened
* 1 1/2 cups white sugar
* 2 eggs
* 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 cup milk

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a muffin pan with paper or foil liners. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa and salt. Set aside.

2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition, then stir in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk; beat well. Fill the muffin cups 3/4 full.

3. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Frost with your favorite frosting when cool.

Hershey's has the most amazingly moist chocolate cake recipe. It is perfect every time. I haven't found the perfect icing receipe yet, but the cake is great even without icing. Although I did try a Malted Vanilla icing that was pretty good with this chocolate cake.

The biggest thing I figured out when making a cake from scratch is to really cream the sugar and butter. It has been a little while since I've done it but its something like 5-6 minutes. When I started doing that my cakes came out so much better.
