How to start this post? YUMMMM...we loved this cake...we couldn't stay away from it...we ate it for dessert and then we ate it for breakfast... This beautiful cake recipe is a 100 year old treasure and a keeper! Reeni of Cinnamon Girl discovered this recipe in an old McCall's cookbook published in 1910, and she too fell in love with this fluffy, moist, easy-to-prepare cake and was good enough to share it with the rest of us so that we could enjoy it as well. Thank you, Reeni! If you are not familiar with Reeni's blog, please take a few minutes to go and visit her. Her food is fabulous, and her photography makes you want more! At first I was skeptical that a cake recipe made with all-purpose flour could be be both fluffy and moist; in the past, I've only achieved that kind of result when using cake flour. Also, I pretty consistently only have King Arthur Flour in the pantry, which tends to make a denser (but still delicious!) cake. Imagine my surprise when my first bite revealed a cake that surpassed all expectations. I don't know if it's the one tablespoon of baking powder or the four minutes total of beating, but whatever, the secret, this recipe works! This will be a recipe that I will turn to again and again. Old Fashioned Butter Cake (from Reeni's Cinnamon Girl blog) 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted 1 1/4 cup sugar 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup butter, softened 1 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 eggs Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease and flour two 8 inch x 2 inch baking pans and set aside. In a large mixing bowl sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add butter, milk, and vanilla. With a hand mixer, beat for 2 minutes, occasionally scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add eggs and beat for 2 minutes more. Pour batter into prepared pans, dividing equally between the pans. Bake 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes and then turn cakes out onto a cooling rack to cool completely. Frost with your favorite frosting. I used my favorite chocolate frosting, the one on the back of the Hersey's cocoa can. "Perfectly Chocolate" Chocolate Frosting 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter or margarine 2/3 cup Hershey's cocoa 3 cups powdered sugar (confectioners' sugar) 1/3 cup milk (plus an additional few drops to make a nice consistency) 1 teaspoon vanilla Melt butter. Stir in cocoa. Alternately add powdered sugar and milk, beating on medium speed to spreading consistency. Add more milk if needed. Stir in vanilla. About 2 cups frosting

I don't often make butter cakes like this one because of the large amount of butter that goes into it though I really love a rich butter cake. But one has to give ourselves a little treat at times. My daughter was asking for an orange version and I found this butter cake on Kitchen Snippets. I loved how beautifully golden and moist it looked on her blog. The cake turned out really delicious - with moist, golden crumbs and a delicate orange flavour. It was really addictive and I couldn't help but eat a couple of pieces though I had promised myself I wouldn't eat more than one for the sake of the waistline. Orange Butter Cake (8 inch round) Recipe from Kitchen Snippets Ingredients 227gram/2 sticks butter – room temperature 200 gram sugar (I used 170g) 220 gram flour 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp salt 4 large eggs Zest of an orange (I used the zest of 2 oranges) 5 tbsp orange juice (freshly squeezed) Method Grease and line an 8” round baking pan. Preheat oven to 350 degree F (175 degree C). Sieve flour, baking powder and salt and set it aside. Cream butter and sugar until light and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until mixture is light and fluffy. Add in the orange zest. Slow down the mixer and slowly add in the flour. Finally stir in orange juice. Mix until well combined. Turn out mixture into prepared tin. Level out mixture at the sides but allow a shallow well in the centre. This is to enable the cake to level up evenly during baking. Bake for 50-55 minutes or until cooked through when tested with a skewer.

I usually frost the cake right in the pan but you can double this recipe using two cake pans for a double-layer cake. Only line the pan with parchment if you plan to remove the cake from the pan. It’s best to have all your ingredients at room temperature and I highly recommend using a cake strip. Be sure to aerate your flour before measuring.- Jenny Jones
