Snow White Vanilla Cake Recipe 415

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare three (3) 8-inch round cake pans by spraying with non-stick spray or greasing the pans; then place parchment round in the bottom of the pan and spray or grease that as well. In the bowl of stand mixer, cream butter and sugar together until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together flour, salt and baking powder in large bowl. To make cake batter, add flour mixture and ice water to creamed butter, alternating between wet and dry ingredients and beating after each addition After everything is well mixed, add vanilla and almond extracts, mix again to incorporate, and then fold in beaten egg whites until the batter is smooth. Divide evenly between the prepared pans, smooth top of batter, and bake for approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool cakes completely on cooling racks, then remove from baking pans and discard parchment. Cakes can be prepared ahead of time - kept well-wrapped they can be refrigerated for 2 days or frozen for 1 week. Buttercream Frosting: In the bowl of stand mixer, cream butter until smooth, then turn to low and add powdered sugar in two additions. Beat on low until incorporated, then beat on medium speed until frosting is smooth. (Sifting your powdered sugar ahead of time helps to get smooth frosting.) Add salt, vanilla extract, and milk, and beat until smooth again. If the frosting is thick enough for you, add any coloring you like; use immediately or refrigerate tightly sealed. To make frosting thicker, add an additional 1/2-1 cup powdered sugar. To make frosting thinner, add an additional 1 to 2 tablespoons milk.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans. Sift cake flour, baking powder and salt together into a medium bowl. Combine butter, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar and marzipan in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer set at medium speed until fluffy. Beat in 1 teaspoon almond extract and vanilla extract. Add flour mixture alternately with milk, beating continually. Beat until well mixed. Fold in the beaten egg whites. Pour equal portions of batter into prepared cake pans. Bake layers until a toothpick inserted in the center of each layer comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Transfer cake pans to wire racks. Let stand to cool for 10 minutes. Turn the layers onto wire racks to cool completely. Mix frosting and whipped topping in a large bowl. Stir in remaining almond extract. Spread between layers and over top and sides of cake.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch cake tin with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
• Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl. Add eggs, milk, and vegetable oil. Mix by hand or use an electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Add more flour if batter is too runny. Pour into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour.
• Remove from the oven and let cool, 15 to 30 minutes. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill slightly, 15 to 30 minutes more. Slice the cooled cake through the middle to make 2 layers.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Prepare cake batter and bake as directed on package for 2 (9-inch) round layers, blending 1 pkg. dry pudding mix into batter before pouring into prepared pans. Cool cakes in pans 10 min.; invert onto wire racks. Gently remove pans; cool cakes completely.
• Meanwhile, draw 3 or 4 snowflake shapes on paper, ranging in size from 1 to 3 inches in diameter. Place on tray; cover with waxed paper. Melt chocolate as directed on package; cool 5 min. Spoon into small resealable plastic bag; cut small corner off bottom of bag. Trace over snowflake patterns with chocolate, rearranging patterns as needed to make a total of 35 chocolate snowflakes. Freeze 10 min. or until chocolate is firm. Carefully transfer snowflakes to plate; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Beat remaining dry pudding mix, sugar and milk in large bowl with whisk 2 min. Stir in COOL WHIP. Place 1 cake layer on plate; spread with jam, then 1/3 of the pudding mixture. Cover with remaining cake layer. Frost top and side of cake with remaining pudding mixture. Decorate with chocolate snowflakes. Keep refrigerated.
