One Two Three Cake Food

ONE-TWO-THREE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
• In prepared pan, combine cake mix, oil, eggs, and water. Stir together until cake mix is moistened, breaking up any large lumps in the batter and spreading to cover bottom of pan. Spoon on pie filling to form strips evenly spaced over batter, but not too close to edge of pan. Gently fold batter over pie filling, creating a swirl pattern and spreading out to form an even layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.
• For the topping: Mix together the crushed pineapple and instant pudding. Refrigerate for 5 minutes, or until thickened. Fold in whipped topping, then spread over cooled cake. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

TWO-TIER STACKED CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease the bottom and sides of three 6-inch cake pans with cooking spray. Grease the bottom and sides of three 9-inch cake pans with cooking spray.
• For the 6-inch cakes: Place 1 box cake mix, 1 cup water, 1/3 cup vegetable oil and 3 eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on low speed for 30 seconds. Increase the speed to medium for 2 minutes. Divide the batter among the prepared 6-inch pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the 9-inch cakes: Place the remaining 2 boxes cake mix, 2 cups water, 2/3 cup vegetable oil and 6 eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on low speed for 30 seconds. Increase the speed to medium for 2 minutes. Divide the batter among the prepared 9-inch pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the buttercream: Beat the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the confectioners' sugar and milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, alternating between the two until no lumps remain. Add the vanilla and salt and mix until incorporated. Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a 2D tip.
• Place one 9-inch cake layer on a 10-inch cardboard round and place on a rotating cake stand. Pipe 1 to 1 1/2 cups buttercream on top and use an offset spatula to spread into an even layer. Place a second 9-inch cake layer on top of the buttercream and pipe another 1 1/2 cups buttercream on top. Spread into an even layer, then top with the last 9-inch cake layer.
• To apply a crumb coat, pipe about 2 cups buttercream on the top and sides of the cake and use an offset spatula or bench scraper to make smooth. Remove excess buttercream and scrape into a bowl. Transfer cake to the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
• Repeat the process with the 6-inch cakes and chill.
• Remove the cakes from the refrigerator.
• Press a 6-inch cardboard round in the center of the 9-inch cake to make an outline. Remove the cardboard. Push 1 cake dowel or bubble tea straw into the cake within the outline you just made.
• Make a line with an edible pen where the top of the cake hits the dowel. Remove the dowel and cut at the line. Use the cut dowel as a model to cut 3 more. Push the 4 dowels evenly into the cake within the outline.
• Gently place the 6-inch cake on top of the dowels. Thread a long dowel through both cakes. Cover the top of the wooden dowel with frosting.
• Using a small round tip, pipe more buttercream in the gap between the cakes, or smooth with a spatula.

1 2 3 - THE EASIEST YOGURT-BASED SPONGE CAKE! (NO MEASURING EQUIPMENT REQUIRED)

Steps:

• Before starting, preheat your oven to 180°C. This will avoid you waiting around once you have finished making the batter which takes under 5 minutes!
• Take a mixing bowl and add to it your pot of plain yogurt. Then, once rinsed out and dried, use it to measure 3 pots of flour and 2 pots of sugar and add this to the mix. Using a fork (or electronic whisk), mix the contents. Again, using the same yogurt pot, measure 1/2 pot of oil and 1/2 pot of milk and add to the bowl. Then, measure out the 1 tbsp of baking powder and crack to eggs into the batter. Mix (tilting the bowl and moving the fork in a circular motion to get as much air in as possible) until the mixture is nice and smooth, free from lumps. If there are any chocolate fanatics out there, you could swirl in some melted chocolate for a marble effect!
• Take your cake tin and either line it with foil, or spread with butter to avoid it from sticking when you take it out. Then, pour the mixture in and shake the tin from side to side to ensure an even spread. Place it in the oven for around 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Leave to cool for a few minutes before taking out the tin. Serve and enjoy, perhaps with some icing sugar or jam.
• P.S. Don't forget to leave a review!

• In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks well, then add to butter mixture.
• Sift together flour and baking powder. Add alternately with the milk to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat well. Add vanilla.
• Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Add 1 cup sugar to the egg whites. Fold into cake batter.

1-2-3 MUG CAKE: A SINGLE-SERVING DESSERT IN A CUP

Steps:

• Pour both boxes of cake mix into a gallon sized sealable storage bag and shake to thoroughly combine the mixes.
• Put 3 tablespoons of the combined cake mix in a microwaveable coffee cup. Seal and set aside the remaining cake mix to enjoy 1-2-3 Cake another day.
• Add 2 tablespoons of water.
• Stir the water and cake mix together to form a batter. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the mug to get all the cake mix granules wet.
• Cook for 1 minute in the microwave.
• Be careful when you remove the hot cup from the microwave. The resulting cake will fill about half the cup and have a spongy appearance.
• Top with whipped cream and sprinkles. Enjoy this warm, delicious dessert!

1-2-3-4 COCONUT CAKE

Steps:

• Place margarine in a mixing bowl. Fluff with mixer.
• Add sugar, small amounts at a time.
• Add eggs one at a time.
• Add flour a little bit at a time alternating with the milk.
• Add the vanilla.
• Spray cake pans with Pam and dust lightly with flour. Cake will make 4 layers. If you only have 2 cake pans [like me -- ], you can bake in 2 shifts (2 pans at a time).
• Bake at 350F for 25 minutes.
• After taking the final pans out of the oven, let cool. You can begin cooking the frosting here.
• For frosting:.
• Put sugar in a 3-qt. sauce pan. Add water. Stir a little to dissolve sugar.
• Bring to a boil and stop stirring.
• Lower heat to medium, bring to soft ball stage, until it just begins to spin a thread while it cooks. Remember, do NOT stir the frosting while cooking. The process will take about 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat egg whites until stiff.
• Pour cooked syrup (mixture in saucepan) into the egg whites in a thin stream while you beat it with a spoon. Beat for a few minutes to cool it a little.
• Add coconut and coconut flavoring.
• When it starts to cool a little, it is ready to frost the cake. Wait 10-15 minutes for this to occur.
• While frosting, keep this in mind: frosting tends to separate (the syrup has higher density and will fall to bottom of bowl). Make sure that you keep the frosting homogenous (mixed) while frosting. Frosting is very thin, so it will fall off of the cake. Make sure to frost on the platter that you will serve the cake on. Also, keep reapplying the frosting that falls off until almost all is reabsorbed.
• Fresh coconut will stick to sides and syrup will absorb into cake.
• This is the most moist, delicious, yummy cake in the world! Perfect for an anniversary or holiday!

BASIC 1-2-3-4 CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 °F.
• Grease and flour 3 (9-inch) cake pans. Using an electric mixer, cream butter until fluffy. Add sugar and continue to cream well for 6 to 8 minutes. Add eggs,1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour and milk alternately to creamed mixture, beginning and ending with flour. Add vanilla and continue to beat until just mixed.
• Divide batter equally among prepared pans. Level batter in each pan by holding pan 3 or 4 inches above counter, then dropping it flat onto counter. Do this several times to release air bubbles and assure you of a more level cake.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until done. Cool in pans 5 to 10 minutes. Invert cakes onto cooling racks. Cool completely and spread cake layers with your favorite frosting to make a 3-layer cake.
