Notes

  • For room temperature ingredients, remove from the fridge 45-60 minutes before using.
  • In order to make homemade Cake flour - for every cup of all purpose flour, remove two tablespoons and replace with two tablespoons of corn starch. Be sure to sift the flour and cornstarch together a couple of times, this way it is sure to be properly combined and lump free.
