Homemade Vanilla Cake 9x13 Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x9-inch pan.
• Beat sugar and butter together in a medium bowl until creamy. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time; stir in vanilla extract and almond extract.
• Combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in milk until batter is smooth. Pour or spoon batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until it springs back to the touch, 30 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottoms and sides of two 9-inch round cake pans; dust with flour, and tap out the excess.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Beat the butter, sugar and oil in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light in color and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and then the vanilla until combined.
• Alternate folding the flour mixture and the milk into the batter with a spatula, adding the flour in three additions and the milk in two, starting and ending with the flour, until just smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
• Bake the cakes on the same oven rack until golden on top and the centers spring back to the touch, 35 to 40 minutes. Rotate the pans about halfway through if they seem to be browning unevenly. Let cool in the pans about 10 minutes, then turn out onto cooling racks and let cool completely.
• For the frosting: While the cakes cool, beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar. Once it's all been added, increase the speed to medium-high, and beat until white and fluffy. Add 2 tablespoons of the milk, and beat to incorporate. Beat in the remaining milk, one tablespoon at a time (the frosting will be spreadable but not runny).
• To assemble: Place 1 cake layer right-side up on a cake plate or stand, and spread with 1 cup of the frosting. Top with the second cake layer. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a 8-inch baking pan. Set aside.

• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
• Sprinkle chocolate chips over warm cake. Let stand for 2 minutes; slightly swirl chocolate chips.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, and set aside. Sift together flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium bowl.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat together egg yolks and sugar on medium-low speed until light and fluffy. Beat in the water and vanilla bean scrapings. Add dry ingredients in three batches, scraping down sides of bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, just until flour mixture is incorporated after each addition.
• In another mixing bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry peaks form; whisk a quarter into batter to lighten. Fold in remaining egg whites, and pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until cake springs back when gently pressed in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

• Pour into prepared pan and bake and bake for 50 minutes or until cake tests done.

• To prepare frosting, beat butter/margerine in a large bowl until well creamed.
• Add sifted confectioner's sugar and 3 tablespoons of milk a little at a time until well incorporated, about 1 minute.
