Wow this is the first time I ever backed a cake and it came out good! Actually it was my 2nd ever baking a cake but I still loved it, the inside was so moist and not dry like my 1st cake. Overall my mother and I both enjoyed this cake....it barely lasted a day >.>

    Very good white cake recipe. Easy cake to make and love the texture. Just the right amount of sugar for our tastes. I made these using a ice cream cone cupcake mould. They baked up in 20. I frosted them with Kittencal's Creamy White Frosting/Icing.... Better Than Canned!. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

    The first time I tried this I looked, as I always did, rather skeptically at the half cup of butter. Yes, I know cholesterol is probably a better risk than trans- fats, and that some fat is good in any diet - but still, I looked at it skeptically. That time I did use half a cup of butter, despite my reservations, and of course it turned out lovely. It was a nice small square cake that baked deep golden outside, and ivory yellow on the inside, beautiful, tasty, and my family raved over it. However, most recently I tried creaming only a third of the required butter, or it might have been a quarter - that's all we had left! Perhaps it was the full butter/sugar creaming I did this time, perhaps it was the greatly smaller size (mini-cupcakes, lined with baking paper), but these ones turned out - if it's possible - even more beautiful than the first. My family raved further! Not too sweet, and not boring in the least. The lowered fat didn't hurt anything, that I noticed - although that might have been due to the greater surface area - and now there are only two left on the plate. Even my astute father had praise for them. Thank you, Ranikabani! This recipe's definitely going into the collection.

    MMMMmmmmmm! This recipe is perfect, better than a boxed mix for sure. I made this to take to a Sunday School Christmas Party as a Birthday Cake for Jesus. All the kids loved it!! I iced it with my favourite icing and then I used star shaped sprinkles. Thanks!
