If you are organizing a special occasion for yourself or for someone like a wedding, birthday party, an anniversary, a cake is normally the pastry of choice to celebrate the occasion. Cakes have been a part of numerous culture for for many years from as far back as the Vikings and the Roman Empire. Sure you can go out and order a cake from a bakery, but that takes away from the experience of making it on your own. A cake can be baked with many different types of consistency, from bread-like textures to some rich light cakes. Nowadays most of the equipment used for making cakes can be conveniently accessed in almost every household so even a novice cook can make a great cake. This piece will provide you with the step by step instructions on how to go about making a plain cake.
Things you will need:
2 cups of sugar
1 cup of butter
3 cups of flour
4 eggs
1 tablespoon of vanilla
1 cup of milk
1 teaspoon of salt
Container
Stove
Salt
Strainer
Instructions are as follows:
1. Utilize the strainer to filter the flour into a container and then calculate the amount you need for baking the cake.
2. Now put in the salt and baking powder and filter the mixture again.
3. Add in the softened butter and mix it using either a spoon or a mixer it out until it becomes smooth. Then when this is done calculate the amount of sugar and gradually begin to put to the mixture.
4. Open all the eggs into a container to make sure that none of them are rotten. Once all of them are in and ready, start to add in the eggs one by one and mix them well after each addition.
5. Add the milk with vanilla until the mixture comes together. While you are mixing, the mixture will appear to curdle but after constant mixing, when adding the dry products, it will come together.
6. Now turn the oven to 350 degrees F and give it time to heat up and use butter to oil the bottoms of the cake tins.
7. When the mixture finally becomes consistent, then fold in the flour mixture and pour into the baking tins. Create a dip in the center of the mixture so that it does not rise when baking.
8. Place the cakes in the oven for half hour but do not open the oven during the first 15 minutes.
Tips and Warnings
* You can use a cross section of baking tins to create various shape of cakes. Some people prefer to make round cakes, square cakes, heart shapes and others.
* If you are arranging a wedding, birthday or anniversary you can make your own icing and use it to decorate your cake, using design and even display phrases to the person that the cake is dedicated to.
