Frosting
Room temperature ingredients: It takes a little thought before you actually start but set out your ingredients a few hours before you start baking. Baking with room temperature ingredients helps things mix together and creates a smooth batter and frosting! Don’t open the oven early: If you open the oven too soon, it releases too much hot air. This lowers the baking temperature around your cake and the cake will collapse. So, if you must open it to see then try to wait until at least 35 minutes into the baking time. Use the oven light while you wait.Cake flour: The reason that I use cake flour instead of regular flour is because it makes the cake more tender! If you don’t have cake flour, don’t worry! You can make it from scratch! For every 1 cup of all purpose flour, remove 2 tablespoons of the flour and replace with cornstarch. Then, you will sift it together. Once it’s been fully sifted, then measure out the amount of flour that you need for the recipe!
