Old-Fashioned Yellow Layer Cake This is the ultimate birthday cake. Just top with a rich chocolate frosting and some candles and you'll look for reasons to celebrate just so you can make it. Makes one 9-inch double layer cake (about 12 servings) Softened unsalted butter, for pan 2 cups cake flour 2 teaspoons baking powder ½ teaspoon salt 1 cup granulated sugar ¾ cup (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into small cubes 2 large eggs 2 large egg yolks 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract ²∕³ cup plain yogurt (you may use vanilla yogurt, but halve the amount of vanilla extract in the recipe if you choose to use it in place of plain yogurt) 1. P reheat the Toaster Oven Broiler to 350°F on the Bake setting with the pan in the lower position. 2. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan, and then cut a circle out of parchment paper to fit in the bottom of the pan; reserve. 3. Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a large mixing bowl. Add the butter. Using a hand mixer fitted with the beater attachments, mix until the butter is well incorporated into the dry ingredients, giving the mixture the look of wet sand. This will take 1 to 2 minutes. 4. In a small bowl or large liquid measuring cup, mix the remaining wet ingredients together. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry/butter mixture and beat until combined - be sure to not over-mix. 5. Transfer the thick batter to the prepared cake pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. 6. L et pan rest on a cooling rack for 15 minutes. Remove cake from pan, but let it cool completely before frosting (see www.cuisinart.com for a variety of frosting recipes). NOTE: The cake can be used as one thick layer, but it is most impressive when halved. To do so, use a serrated knife and evenly and carefully slice in half, horizontally, through the center.
