Fondant “Icing Friendly” cake

Fondant “Icing Friendly” cake

Fondant Icing Cake’s Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups of butter
• 2 1/2 cups of granulated sugar
• 3 cups of all-purpose flour
• 1 cup of milk
• 5 eggs
• 1 teaspoon Almonds Extract (I’m using the almonds extract but you can easily replace it with pure vanilla extract or any other flavor you like)
• 3/4 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon of salt

Fondant Icing Cake’s Preparations:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Mix the butter and sugar in a mixer bowl until light and fluffy
• Add the eggs one at a time, keep mixing until all eggs are added
• Add the almonds flavorings to the mix, followed by the flour with baking powder and salt
• Add flour mixture alternately with milk, starting with the flour
• Spray pans with vegetable pan spray and pour in the mix
• Bake until a wooden skewer comes out clean (I rather use a skewer rather than a toothpick after I burnt my hands several times using a short toothpick…)
• Cool for ten minutes in the pans, and the cake is ready for you to loosen the sides and remove the pans
• Let the cake cool completely before you start the fondant icing

This recipe makes around 8 cups of batter which will give you two 8″ round cakes. (The amount of fondant you get by following my fondant recipe is enough to cover two 8” cakes with a little fondant left for decorations)
