This was so scrumptious! I will make a double batch of it next time I need a white cake. So moist and flavourful!
Strawberry Shortcake – but just the cake!
Nonstick vegetable spray
1.5 cups cake flour
1.5 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup sugar
1.5 T. turbine sugar
½ 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese
¼ cups (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
¾ cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
¼ tsp. vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350F. Spray 9-inch cake pan with non-stick spay. Sprinkle bottom and sides of pan with 1/5 T. turbine sugar. Whisk flour and baking powder in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat 1 cup sugar, cream cheese, and butter in large bowl to blend. Beat milk, eggs, and vanilla in another medium bowl to blend. Beat milk mixture into cream cheese mixture. Add dry ingredients; beat until smooth. Transfer batter to prepared pan. Sprinkle remaining 1 T. turbine sugar over top of batter.
Bake cake until golden brown on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool in pan on rack.
