SPONGE CAKE SQUARES
Delicious served warm for brunch or a coffee break. No butter inside the cake, but after the cake is baked, butter is poured on top and then icing sugar is sprinkled on top of cake with cinnamon. It took me only 30 minutes for this cake to bake so make sure you check after 30 minutes with toothpick.

CHEESECAKE SQUARES
I love this recipe because it got me an "A" one week in my "Newspaper In Classroom" class back in high school. If we made a recipe we found in the newspaper, and the teacher liked it, he'd grade us well. My teacher's questionable grading practices aside, this is a great recipe!

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools measured, prepped, and ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the baking process.
- Use quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the flavor and texture of your cake. Use fresh, high-quality ingredients whenever possible.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
- Gradually add the eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use the right size pan: Make sure you use a pan that is the right size for the amount of batter you have. If the pan is too small, the cake will be too thick and dense. If the pan is too large, the cake will be too thin and dry.
- Bake the cake at the right temperature: The temperature of your oven will also affect the texture of your cake. Bake the cake at the temperature specified in the recipe. If the oven is too hot, the cake will be dry and overcooked. If the oven is too cool, the cake will be undercooked and dense.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting and sliding off the cake.
- Use a variety of frosting techniques: There are many different ways to frost a cake. Get creative and experiment with different techniques to find the one you like best.
Conclusion:
Baking a perfect cake takes practice, but with a little patience and attention to detail, anyone can do it. By following these tips, you can create a delicious, beautiful cake that will impress your friends and family. So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
