This cake is the bomb! It's easy to make. It's moist. It's delicious. It goes with almost any frosting. And the best part--you can add flavors/colors for any event! This week, I'm doing a cake for a gender baby shower. I'm going to use a little food coloring so that when we cut the cake the sex of the baby is revealed. Last week, I needed a wedding shower cake at the spur of the moment, so I added some fudge and some chocolate chips and we had a decadent fudge cake. It's a GREAT recipe!!! But, for the record, I always use 3 whole eggs, as opposed to 6 egg whites.....even if I'm just doing the plain white cake recipe.

Tasty, light and relatively easy. It was actually one of the moister 'from-scratch' cakes I've ever made. Someone earlier said it tasted a bit like sugar cookies and I totally agree. To keep it from getting too sweet, I used a powdered sugar glaze rather than butter cream to frost.

I tried making this but it turned out flat. Are you supposed to beat the egg whites into peaks? The recipe just said combine them with the milk and vanilla.

I made this the first time today for my sons' birthday. He really liked it. I got so tired of the box cake mixes and decided to try the old fashion (you know like our moms and grandmas did from scratch. It was really nice when my son told me it was the best I ever made, he's 30. It taste just like the old fashion sugar cookies, but not as sweet. I also made the cream cheese frosting. Thank you it is a great recipe.

I made this today for the first time and it is delicious! A little more dense than I was expecting, but delicious!!! If you said it tasted like cornbread, you didn't cream the butter and sugar long enough. It's a very common problem. I took quite a few baking classes at ICE in NYC and if you don't let your butter and sugar cream for at least 10 minutes, you will end up with a more cornbread texture.

I chose this cake because I wanted to showcase my peanut butter frosting, so I didn't even add the vanilla. It was perfect. I would, however, whip up the egg whites separate next time and fold them in at the very end to make it lighter. I will be making this again next weekend for a charity fund raiser, so I hope it goes over well!

I have made numerous white cake recipes and this one has turned out the nicest so far, rose nice and was moist. However I wouldn't say this is the perfect recipe, it is good but the search continues.
