1 tsp. almond extract


2 pkgs. Dream Whip, prepared to pkg. directions

Any easy recipe for a birthday cake???

it s my best friend s birthday and i want to make a birthday cake for her. i want something easy but ,u know...,cool.Any easy recipe for a birthday cake???
Here is my easy cake trick.





Use any box cake mix flavor you want. Make a few changes to what you put in it. Instead of the water it calls for, use milk. Instead of the oil that it calls for, use melted butter or margarine. If it is chocolate, add a tablespoon or two of cocoa powder and try buttermilk instead of regular milk. If it is a white cake (or yellow), add a little vanilla extract.





As for icing, use the stuff in the can already. Decorate it with the tubes of colored icing, the hardened candy like decorations, or not at all. Your friend will be very happy at the effort of a home baked cake...and that you remembered the birthday.





I make changes like this all of the time, and everyone swears that my cakes are homemade from scratch. They are not.Any easy recipe for a birthday cake???

Ingredients





1 cups sugar


1/4 teaspoons salt


1/4 cup shortening


1 large egg


1/2 teaspoon vanilla


1 1/2 cups flour


1/2 tablespoons baking powder


3/4 cups milk





Directions





Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease and dust with flour a single 9-inch round cake pan for a single layer cake. Dust two if you are doubling the recipe for a layer cake.





1. Cream the sugar, salt, and shortening together. Add the egg and beat until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla.


2. In another bowl, mix the flour and baking powder together.


3. Add about one-third of the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture and mix briefly. Add about one-third of the milk and mix. Continue twice more with the remaining flour and milk. Do not over mix. Scrape the batter into the pan.


4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the cake tests done with a toothpick.


5. Let the cake rest in the pan for about five minutes and then remove it to a wire rack to continue cooling


Lemon Cake Filling





2 tablespoons cornstarch


3/4 cup granulated sugar


1/2 cup water


2 large egg yolks


zest from one small lemon


1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh squeezed or battled from concentrate)


1 tablespoon butter





Combine the cornstarch and sugar in a medium saucepan. Stir in the water. Add the egg yolks, zest, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a whisk often, until the mixture comes to a boil. Cook for one more minute. Set aside to cool.





For the topping:





Cool White Whipped Cream Frosting





Prepare to whip one cup heavy whipping cream with three tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla.





In a cup, mix 1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin powder with one tablespoon cold water. Heat it in the microwave for 6 to 8 seconds, and then stir again. Repeat. If the granules are not dissolved, repeat a third time.





In a bowl, whip the whipping cream and granulated sugar. While the gelatin is still hot, drizzle it into the whipped cream as you are whipping鈥攄o not turn the mixer off. (If the gelatin cools, it will solidify. If it is not mixed as it hits the whipping cream, droplets will solidify in your frosting.)





Add the vanilla. Continue beating until the frosting forms stiff peaks. Frost your cake. The frosting should keep its form for two days or more if refrigerated.





To assemble:





1. With a long-bladed, serrated knife, split the cake horizontally.


2. Spread the lemon filling on the bottom half of the cake. Place the top half on the filling.


3. Frost the cake.





Since the filling includes eggs and the frosting includes milk, this cake should be refrigerated.chooze and enjoy

  • Is there a easy simple recipe for angel food cake please?

    Angel food cake is made from whipped egg whites, and there are no easy and simple recipes involving whipped egg whites. They require careful attention to temperature, and scrupulous cleaniless is imperative.





    This is as simple as any recipe, though, and unlike the plastic foam they sell at the supermarket, this one is *moist*.





    * 1 1/4 cups cake flour


    * 1 3/4 cups white sugar


    * 1/4 teaspoon salt


    * 1 1/2 cups egg whites


    * 1 teaspoon cream of tartar


    * 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


    * 1/2 teaspoon almond extract





    1. Beat egg whites until they form stiff peaks, and then add cream of tartar, vanilla extract, and almond extract.


    2. Sift together flour, sugar, and salt. Repeat five times.


    3. Gently combine the egg whites with the dry ingredients, and then pour into an ungreased 10 inch tube pan.


    4. Place cake pan in a cold oven. Turn the oven on; set it to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Cook for about one hour, or until cake is golden brown.


    5. Invert cake, and allow it to cool in the pan. When thoroughly cooled, remove from pan.Is there a easy simple recipe for angel food cake please?

    Angel Food Cake


    Recipe courtesy Alton Brown











    1 3/4 cups sugar


    1/4 teaspoon salt


    1 cup cake flour, sifted


    12 egg whites (the closer to room temperature the better)


    1/3 cup warm water


    1 teaspoon orange extract, or extract of your choice


    1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar





    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.


    In a food processor spin sugar about 2 minutes until it is superfine. Sift half of the sugar with the salt the cake flour, setting the remaining sugar aside.


    In a large bowl, use a balloon whisk to thoroughly combine egg whites, water, orange extract, and cream of tartar. After 2 minutes, switch to a hand mixer. Slowly sift the reserved sugar, beating continuously at medium speed. Once you have achieved medium peaks, sift enough of the flour mixture in to dust the top of the foam. Using a spatula fold in gently. Continue until all of the flour mixture is incorporated.


    Carefully spoon mixture into an ungreased tube pan. Bake for 35 minutes before checking for doneness with a wooden skewer. (When inserted halfway between the inner and outer wall, the skewer should come out dry).


    Cool upside down on cooling rack for at least an hour before removing from pan.

    I need a small batch of icing to write WHITE letters on a cake... can you please tell me a recipe?

    INGREDIENTS


    1 cup confectioners' sugar


    1/4 cup shortening


    1-1/2 teaspoons water


    1/4 teaspoon clear imitation vanilla extract





    DIRECTIONS


    In a large bowl, combine sugar, shortening, water and vanilla. Beat on low speed to combine, then beat on medium speed for a full five minutes. It won't look like Icing at first, but keep the mixer going for a full five minutes, and then you're done!


    Note: If you're not using this for decorating, but just for icing the cake, thin the icing by adding 3 tbs. of corn syrup, or water to the icing.I need a small batch of icing to write WHITE letters on a cake... can you please tell me a recipe?

    sugar and unsalted butter, oh and some vanilla extract (but be careful because that could change the color).
    go get one of the icing tubes at the grocery store for such a small decoration job
    Start off with some cream cheese, a couple ounces. Then add 1-2 tablespoon of butter. The cream cheese and butter needs to be room temperature and then mix them together. Now, slowly blend confectionate sugar into the mix and add one teaspoon of vanilla extract. The amount of cream cheese, butter and confectionate sugar depends on how much icing you need. Play it by sight.





    I use this recipe to frost my cake. It's delicious on chocolate cake. For a 9 x 13 cake, I would use 8 oz of cream cheese, half a stick of butter, one tablespoon of vanilla extract and 3 cups of confectionate sugar.

    Powdered sugar and few drops of water... You could add a bit of Crisco, but not too much. It's so much easier to get a tube and be done with it. They also come with tips, so you can write really pretty with them.

    The recipe to a red velvet cake?

    Red velvet cake recipes


    Although the details are sketchy at best, red velvet cake is not as Southern as many like to think. The story, which began circulating some time in the 1940s, claimed that Manhattan's elegant Waldorf-Astoria granted a diner's request for the recipe, then a short time later sent her a bill in the amount of $100. The angry woman, apparently with revenge in mind, then began circulating the recipe along with the story.
