Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place parchment paper in the bottom of two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans. Cut the paper so it fits well in the bottom circle of the pan. Spray the pan and parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, cream sugar and butter until smooth. Add oil and mix
- Add the eggs and yolks, one at a time, beating after each addition. Add vanilla and mix.
- Stir together baking powder, salt, and flour in a medium bowl.
- Alternate adding in some of the flour mixture, stirring to combine and then some of the buttermilk, ending with the flour mixture until just combined. Divide the batter evenly in the pans.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with few moist crumbs, but not wet batter. Don't over-bake or the cake will be dry.
- Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes before inverting onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
- Stir together the butter and cocoa powder.
- Use electric mixers or a stand mixer to beat in the powdered sugar, milk ,and vanilla until light and fluffy. I beat the frosting for several minutes.
- Once the cake has cooled completely, frost with chocolate frosting.
- Tips for making ahead and freezing the cake are above in the post.

Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
- In an electric mixer, mix the butter and granulated sugar on high speed until fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl and mix for a few more seconds.

CHOCOLATE FROSTED SOUR CREAM YELLOW CAKE
This cake was featured at a recent community event, and was quite popular. I made 2 chocolate cakes, one was chocolate inside & out. This one had a yellow cake batter, but I frosted it with a combination of cream Cheese & chocolate frosting combined. Then I garnished it with fresh raspberries & miniature marshmallows. Needless to say every one loved it, & there was none left when the event was over. The sour cream gives it the moistness it needs, & the combo frosting gave it a very unique flavor. One of the few frostings that I did not make from scratch. But the cake still tasted great.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Cream the butter with the sugar and sour cream and beat for at least 12-15 minutes till no granules remain.
- Then add eggs one at a time, and beat well after each has been added.
- Then add flour in 3 increments, and beat well after each third has been added. Add almond extract and beat till blended into cake batter.
- Prepare cake pan by spraying with Bakers Joy, or grease cake pan with butter and dust lightly with flour, then remove any excess flour, before adding cake batter to pan. I used a 16 cup square Bundt Pan, but your standard 12 cup bundt pan will also work. Pour batter into pan and bake in preheated 325 degree oven for1 1/2 hours or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Remove from oven, and let sit for about 10 minutes until cake pulls away from sides of pan. Then invert onto cooling rack to cool completely.
- Prepare frosting by combining the 2 cans into a medium size bowl, and stirring until it is completely blended. Then frost cake as desired, and garnish according to your preference. I used fresh raspberries and mini marshmallows. Serve and enjoy.

Steps:
- For cake:
- Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°F. Coat cake pans with nonstick spray. Line bottom of pans with parchment-paper rounds; coat paper. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until no lumps remain. Combine buttermilk, oil, and vanilla in a medium bowl.
- Combine sugar, butter, and brown sugar in another large bowl. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean. Using an electric mixer, beat butter mixture until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Add yolks and eggs one at a time, beating to blend between additions and occasionally scraping down sides and bottom of bowl.
- Continue to beat mixture, occasionally scraping down sides and bottom of bowl, until almost doubled in volume and very light, airy, and pale yellow, 5-6 minutes. It's very important that no lumps remain at this stage. (Occasional scraping of the bowl, especially the bottom, helps prevent lumps.)
- With mixer on low, add dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with buttermilk mixture in 2 additions, beginning and ending with dry ingredients.
- Divide batter evenly among prepared pans, about 3 1/2 cups per pan. Smooth tops.
- Bake, rotating cakes from left to right and top to bottom halfway through, until cakes are light golden brown, the centers spring back when gently pressed, and a tester inserted into the centers comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 35-40 minutes.
- Transfer cakes to wire racks; let cool in pans for at least 30 minutes. Invert cakes onto racks, peel off parchment, and let cool completely.
- Using a long serrated knife, remove top dome and any bumps from each cake to create a flat surface. Slice each cake in half horizontally to make 6 layers total. DO AHEAD: Cakes can be baked 1 day ahead. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store at room temperature.
- For frosting and assembly:
- Stir chocolate and corn syrup in a large metal bowl set over a large saucepan of simmering water until melted and smooth; remove from heat. Stir sour cream, salt, and vanilla in a medium metal bowl; set over same saucepan of simmering water. Stir until mixture is warm but not hot, about 2 minutes. Add sour cream mixture to chocolate mixture; stir until smooth and glossy. Set aside.
- Using an electric mixer, beat powdered sugar and butter in a medium bowl until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Scrape down sides of bowl. Slowly beat in chocolate mixture. Continue beating until no lumps remain, about 2 minutes. Frosting should be smooth and shiny. Cover and chill until slightly firmed up, about 30 minutes.
- Place 1 cake layer on a cake stand or large plate. Spoon 1/3 cup frosting over; using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon, smooth frosting to edge of cake, creating an even layer. Place another cake layer on top. Repeat with frosting and remaining cake layers. Spread remaining frosting over top and sides of cake. DO AHEAD: Cake can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with a cake dome and store at room temperature.
YELLOW SHEET CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE FROSTING
This is the kind of dessert worth dreaming about: a buttery yellow cake topped with a chocolate-sour cream frosting, made doubly rich with cocoa powder and melted chocolate. The batter may seem thin when you spread it in the pan, but, once baked, it rises to perfection. It's not a towering, lofty cake - it's not meant to be - but when it's covered with a generous layer of frosting, it makes for the ideal cake-to-icing ratio. For a perfect cake, make sure designated "room temperature" ingredients truly are; this helps ensure that the batter is fully incorporated so the cake bakes evenly.

Steps:
- Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch pan with nonstick spray. Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Make the cake: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then the egg yolk, scraping the sides of the bowl after each addition. Mix on medium speed until fully incorporated, about 1 minute. Add the vanilla extract and mix to combine, 15 to 30 seconds.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine. Add about 1/3 of the flour mixture to the mixer and mix on low speed until incorporated, about 30 seconds. Add about half the milk and mix on low speed until incorporated, about 15 seconds more. Repeat with another batch of flour mixture, the remaining milk, then the remaining flour mixture until fully incorporated.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread in an even layer. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake is golden and separating from the pan at the edges, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool completely.
- Meanwhile, make the frosting: Add the butter to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the bowl from the electric mixer, and sift the confectioners' sugar and cocoa into the bowl with the butter. Stir with a spatula a few times to incorporate slightly. Return the bowl to the mixer and beat on medium speed until smooth and uniform in color, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the sour cream and melted chocolate and mix on low speed until combined, about 30 seconds. Add the vanilla and salt and mix to combine.
- Spread the frosting on the cooled cake in an even layer. Garnish with sprinkles, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 9-inch round cake pans.
- Mix all the ingredients together in the bowl of a standing mixer with a paddle attachment. Beat on low speed for 2 minutes. Divide batter between the prepared pans and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pan a few minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Place 1 cooled cake onto a cake platter. Ice just the top half with the Crusting Buttercream Icing. Place the second cake on top. Lightly ice the sides and top of cake. Gently place your hands on top of the iced cake and press down softly. Doing this helps to mold the cake to the pressure of when the fondant goes onto the cake. It will deter the cake from getting a visible ring that will show through when fondant covers the cake.
- After the fondant has sat in the fridge it will be hard. When ready to use, place in the microwave for a few seconds, maybe 10 seconds at a time, as to soften but not melt. Once it's a little softer it will be ready to work with. Start kneading away on a powdered sugar covered surface just to wake it up a little.
- Flour the surface and the rolling pin with powdered sugar. Roll the fondant to a thickness of about 1/4-inch. Roll the fondant around the rolling pin to transfer it to the top of the cake. Use your fingers to position the fondant gently on top of the cake, smooth out the top and sides. Cut away the excess with a knife, using the bottom of the cake as the guide. With the extra fondant, cut out designs either by hand or using a cookie cutter. Place the designs onto the cake. Use a dab of water to act as the glue to adhere the designs to cake.
- A viewer, who may not be a professional cook, provided this recipe. The Food Network Kitchens chefs have not tested this recipe and therefore, we cannot make representation as to the results.
- Cream the shortening in the bowl of a standing mixer with a paddle attachment. Add the vanilla and butter flavorings. Add the powdered coffee creamer to the water and stir. Once the coffee creamer is dissolved, add this mixture to the shortening and mix on low until the water is incorporated into the shortening. Slowly add the powdered sugar into the shortening, mixing on low speed.
- Cook's Note: Once the powdered sugar is added, you may need to add a little more water depending on what consistency you want your icing.
- Combine the powdered sugar and salt and spread out on the counter to make a 12-inch circle.
- Coat the inside of a large microwave-safe bowl with shortening. Place the marshmallows, flavorings, and water and/or colorings in the bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute (the marshmallows should be puffy). Stir the mixture with a rubber spatula and place back in the microwave for 30 second intervals, or until the marshmallows are melted and smooth when stirred. (While this mixture is in the microwave, coat your hands with shortening as the fondant is sticky and messy.)
- Once the marshmallows are melted and smooth, transfer the contents of the bowl onto the powdered sugar. Start working the sugar into the melted mixture, kneading it like you would bread dough. Continue kneading until the mixture loses its stickiness; you may have to add more powdered sugar. You'll know when it's ready if the fondant forms into a ball. Coat the fondant ball well with shortening and wrap in plastic wrap. Place the fondant in refrigerator for at least 6 to 8 hours or overnight.
