Directions
Plain Old Yellow Cake from Scratch for 100,From ———————————————————————————————————- 2 (two) 18×26 inch “full sheet” pans, cut 6×9 for 108 large thin squares of cake 54 (fifty four) per pan OR 5 (five) 9×13 pans cut 4×5 for 100 thicker squares 20 (twenty) per pan OR 9 (nine) dozen cupcakes 375 F. Oven Warning: You need a commercial size (larger than 5 quarts) mixer that will beat the whole recipe at once to succeed. If you do not have a commercial mixer, make 1/2 or even 1/4 recipe at a time.,With all due respect, the warning about size of mixer to use is way out of whack. It says to use a 5qt commercial…I have a 6qt professional and it’s not big enough by half. The cake itself is easy to make. I also don’t get the sizes one is supposed to cut these cakes into. I hope you will explain because the suggested pieces are huge and not consistent across the board. 6×9’s and 4×5’s will never yield 100.,From ———————————————————————————————————- 2 (two) 18×26 inch “full sheet” pans, cut 6×9 for 108 large thin squares of cake 54 (fifty four) per pan OR 5 (five) 9×13 pans cut 4×5 for 100 thicker squares 20 (twenty) per pan OR 9 (nine) dozen cupcakes 375 F.
