Simple, light layer cake. Comes from my husband's side of the family (his great-grandmother, I believe). We pile it with fresh whipped cream and blueberries every summer. Fabulous.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups sifted unbleached flour shopping list
- 1 1/2 cups sugar shopping list
- 3 teaspoons double-acting baking powder shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon salt shopping list
- 1/2 cup canola oil shopping list
- 1 teaspoon vanilla shopping list
- 1 cup of milk shopping list
- 2 unbeaten eggs shopping list
How to make it
- Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add oil, vanilla, and 2/3 c of the milk.
- Beat thoroughly.
- Add eggs and remaining milk.
- Beat at high for 2 minutes.
- Pour into 2 round 8" or 9" greased and floured pans (can also do a
- rectangle pan).
- Bake in 350 oven for 25 - 35 minutes (when tooth pick inserted in the
- middle comes out clean).
- For topping: ice w/ chocolate or white icing OR cover individual pieces with fresh whipped cream (I do not add sugar, just whip heavy cream until thick) and fresh blueberries.
