Bake a better cake

Most cake problems come from measuring, mixing or oven temperature.

Steps

1. Line pan bottoms with parchment and grease the sides
2. Cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy
3. Add eggs one at a time
4. Alternate dry ingredients and liquid, mixing gently
5. Fill pans evenly and tap out large bubbles
6. Test with a toothpick in the center: a few moist crumbs is done

Cool it

Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack. Frost only when completely cool.
