Perfect Sand Cake

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I made so many mistakes with this and yet it turned out great. I thought I would divide it up and try 3 options in mini-loaf pans but I should have tried 4 (or 5?) or just 2 and used regular-sized bread pans. My family has gobbled up the cocoa loaf (option 3) but the others (options 1 & 2) are really good too. Maybe I'll get those to myself! Oh! The other mistake was to forget the baking soda and powder until one of the loaves was already in the pan. So I poured it back into the bowl and added about 1/2 tsp baking powder to each of the 3 bowls. They were great. I may try the cocoa version with frosting soon. Thanks! Reviewed for Pick-A-Chef.

    Perfect Sand Cake, This recipe is the final result of all cake recipes I have ever tried and this is (in my opinion) the best recipe you could use for having a great cake I consider this recipe is the basic mixture use and then use any of the variations I know to end up with a different cake each time Note: Regarding the flour, I either use 3 cups of all-purpose flour or 2 cups all-purpose flour + 1 cup whole-wheat flour to have that grainy rustic texture of cake which I like, so it depends on your personal taste , I made so many mistakes with this and yet it turned out great I thought I would divide it up and try 3 options in mini-loaf pans but I should have tried 4 (or 5?) or just 2 and used regular-sized bread pans My family has gobbled up the cocoa loaf (option 3) but the others (options 1 & 2) are really good too Maybe I’ll get those to myself! Oh! The other mistake was to forget the baking soda and powder until one of the loaves was already in the pan So I poured it back into the bowl and added about 1/2 tsp baking powder to each of the 3 bowls They were great I may try the cocoa version with frosting soon Thanks!
