MOIST YELLOW CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease and flour (3) 8 inch cake pans.
• Using a mixer, cream butter until fluffy.
• Add sugar and continue to cream for about 7 minutes.
• Add eggs one at a time. Beat well after each egg is added.
• Add flour and milk (alternating to creamed mixture), beginning and ending with flour.
• Add vanilla and butter flavoring to mix; until just mixed.
• Divide batter equally into three cake pans.
• Hold each layer about 3 inches above your counter and carefully drop the pans flat onto counter several times to ensure release of any air bubbles. This will help you have a more level cake.
• Bake for 25 - 30 minutes (depending on your oven) until done.
• Cool in pans for 5 - 10 minutes.
• Remove and immediately wrap each layer in plastic wrap to seal in moisture. Cool completely on wire racks.

• Heat the oven to 350°F Coat 9x13 pan with butter and flour, and tap out any excess flour. Set aside.

• Place butter in the bowl and mix on medium-high speed until fluffy and light in color, about 3 minutes. Add sugar and vanilla, and continue to beat another 5 minutes. Add yolks one at a time, letting each incorporate fully before adding the next. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• Add whole eggs in the same manner, allowing 1 minute between additions. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the paddle.
• Add 1/2 of the flour mixture, and turn the mixer to low speed, mixing until the flour is just incorporated. Add 1/2 of the milk, and mix until just incorporated. Continue with remaining flour mixture and milk, until all ingredients are incorporated and smooth.
• Pour in prepared pan and bake until cake edges slightly pull away from the pan and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out dry with just a few crumbs, about 35 to 40 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and let cool on a wire rack, about 10 to 15 minutes. Run a knife around the perimeter of cake, and turn out onto the rack to cool completely (at least 1 1/2 hours) before frosting.
