Ingredients:
Ingredient Amount
Butter, softened 1\/2 cup (113g)
Granulated sugar 1 cup (200g)
Whole milk, room temperature 1\/2 cup (123g)
Vanilla extract 1 teaspoon
Pure almond extract (optional) 1\/4 teaspoon
Cake flour 1 1\/2 cups (180g)
Baking powder 2 teaspoons
Egg whites, room temperature 4 large (120g or 4 ounces)
How To Make Heavenly White Snack Cake:
Step 1: Prepare Your Pan and Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350\u2218F(175\u2218C). Grease an 8\u00d78 square baking pan with butter and dust it with flour or use baking spray.
Step 2: Cream the Butter: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand-held mixer to beat the 1\/2 cup softened butter on medium speed until creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 3: Add Sugar: Gradually incorporate the 1 cup granulated sugar, continuing to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 4: Combine Milk and Extracts: In a separate container, mix the 1\/2 cup whole milk with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1\/4 teaspoon almond extract (if using).
Step 5: Sift Flour and Baking Powder: Sift together the 1 1\/2 cups cake flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
Step 6: Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Alternately add the flour mixture and milk mixture to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour. Beat at low speed just until blended after each addition.
Step 7: Whip Egg Whites: In another clean bowl, beat the 4 large egg whites on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold these into the batter to add volume and lightness to the cake.
Step 8: Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 9: Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Then, remove from the pan and let it cool completely. Cover the cake with white frosting if desired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
