You have no idea what I have been through over the past several years (intensifying in the past several months) looking for the perfect "white" (okay, we all know it's yellow) cake recipe. Lately my searching and experimenting reached a fevered pitch when a woman tried to pass off a box mix as home made at a party and it was later revealed that it was a box mix (this was after I just about killed myself baking for weeks).
Then, just the right google search brought me to this recipe. To be honest, I hadn't much hope. I expected another letdown - either too dry, too light, or completely BLAND.
I seriously had tears in my eyes when I took the first bite and realized this recipe was PERFECT. When combined with the best buttercream recipe in the world (if I do say so myself....they blew me and my entire family away.
I made them again a week later for a party and everyone was FALLING OVER THEMSELVES, vying for 2nds and 3rds.
I could hug you. Thank you so much for saving me from any more searching - it's simply PERFECT
