Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the ingredients combine more easily and evenly, resulting in a smoother batter and a more tender cake.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly and prevent it from sinking in the middle.
- Don't open the oven door during baking: This can cause the cake to fall.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting set properly.
