Buy a box. Follow the ingrediants, do the icing really nice and smooth. Even add some decoration. Most will never know the difference if homemade or box made. I wish I could do one home made, but to me, it is risky and hard. I do not have any one to try on. Good luck though if you successfully make one.Is there any easy recipes for making cakes?

    Simply substitue Splenda where the recipe calls for sugar. Also if it calls for oil, use applesauce instead.
    nope sorry
    Check allrecipes.com for ideas
    Use Splenda instead of regular sugar.


    If it calls for butter, use applesauce.
    I think you should go for as much fat as possible in a cake. I mean, isn't that why we eat cake..for it to TASTE GOOD.

    My mother used to make a sweet warm white sauce that you ate over chocolate cake. Does anyone have a recipe?

    The sauce consisted of milk, cornstarch and sugar. It was served warm over chocolate cake and the leftovers were warmed up. It was also very sweet and a wonderful combination over the chocolate cake. I am hoping someone out there has the recipe. Thanks :)My mother used to make a sweet warm white sauce that you ate over chocolate cake. Does anyone have a recipe?
    Boiled Custard


    INGREDIENTS:


    2 cups milk


    1/4 cup white sugar


    2 eggs, beaten


    1 tablespoon cornstarch


    2 tablespoons water


    1 teaspoon vanilla extract





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>




    DIRECTIONS:


    Fill the lower pan of a double boiler 1/3 full of water, and bring to a low boil. Pour milk into upper pot, and place over boiling water. Heat until small bubbles form around the edges of the milk. Stir in sugar, and continue stirring until it dissolves.


    In a small bowl, beat the eggs until light yellow. Remove about 1/2 cup hot milk, and gradually stir it into the eggs. Slowly mix the egg mixture into the milk in the pan.


    Mix together cornstarch and water; slowly stir into custard. Bring custard to a boil, and remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Serve warm or chilled.





    If it is custard: you can buy it in a packet (Birds)My mother used to make a sweet warm white sauce that you ate over chocolate cake. Does anyone have a recipe?
    The closest thing I can think of is water mixed with powdered sugar. Just mix it to the right consistency, and heat it.
    Sweet White Sauce








    Ingredients:





    1 oz / 25g cornflour


    陆 pint / 280ml milk


    1 oz / 25g sugar











    Instructions:








    Mix the cornflour and sugar into a paste with a little{underline 1} cold {underline}milk.





    Stir in the remaining milk without heating.





    Now slowly heat the sauce to simmer, stirring continuously.





    Simmer very gently for five minutes.








    Variations:








    Rich white sauce: stir 2 oz / 50g of butter into the cooked sauce.








    Brandy sauce: stir one or two tablespoons of brandy into the cooked sauce.








    Chocolate sauce: Mix 1 or 2 teaspoons of cocoa or gluten free drinking chocolate with the cornflour before adding the cold milk. Add an extra ounce of sugar.





    A thick chocolate sauce can be served hot or cold on its own or with bananas as a pudding.








    Egg custard: Beat two eggs into the cold mixture before heating. Heat the custard over a very low flame, stirring continuously while it thickens. Do not let it boil but keep it warm for three minutes over the heat. It can be easier to place the pan of custard over another pan of boiling water while it is being heated. It must still be stirred all the time.





    Note that the eggs are not fully cooked in egg custard.
    warm water mixed with confectioners sugar (homemade icing) also good for sweet rolls
    In a saucepan, mix 1/2 c. sugar with 1-3 T. corn starch (depending on how thick you want the sauce). Add 1 c. hot water and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, to thicken (2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and add 2 T. butter, 1 t. vanilla extract and 1 t. any extract (rum, brandy or favorite flavor). Pour, while still warm, over fruitcake, plum pudding or bread pudding.
    My mom calls this ';glaze';:


    2 to 3 cups of powdered sugar


    1 cup water


    1 1/2 T cornstarch


    1/2 to 3/4 c. sugar


    (she serves it at room temperature and keeps it in the frig~uses it on strawberries too) She says that you can try and substitute milk for the water but be careful it could scald if you don't keep an eye on it!





    There are several white sauces:





    Sauce


    1 cup whipping cream


    1 cup finely chopped good-quality white chocolate (about 4 1/2 ounces)


    1 1/2 tablespoons clear rum





    Sauce


    5 oz. white chocolate, chopped in small pieces


    1 cup heavy cream





    Sauce


    1 1/2 cups whipping cream


    1/4 cup powdered sugar


    4 ounces white baking chocolate bar or vanilla-flavored candy coating (almond bark), cut into pieces


    2 tablespoons rum





    Sauce:


    1/2 c. sugar


    2 T corn starch (more if too thin)


    1 c. milk


    2 T. butter


    1 t. vanilla
    This is a variation of what you are looking for. It is called Creme Anglaise in French (English cream) and resembles custard.





    Delicious over chocolate cake, brownies, etc





    6 egg yokes


    1 vanilla pod


    150g caster sugar


    Half a litre of full fat milk

    i tried this and it's good!!!. a lot of factors will determine the success in whatever you're baking or cooking. for example your oven. ovens aren't all the same. you must have an oven thermometer so you know the temperature inside. if you live in higher alitude you may need to readjust the temperature of the oven. try not peek because you lose heat and may set you back a good 10 minutes. so you need to use the timer and check it once. use ingredients in room temperature. i hope i'm able to help you. happy baking
    The crazy chocolate cake recipe, but change the vegetable oil for olive oil, and change the white vinegar for balsamic... small changes but it is the most amazing cake ever... and better yet, it is vegan!!!
    My Aunt's Chocolate Cake is great; but doesn't have all the gooey's as the recipe after it does.


    You could always incorporate the Chocolate Mousse filling into it, even use the Ganache Recipe for the top of the cake. Good Luck.

    or...





    if you're in a hurry, take any white cake mix ( I like Pillsbury or Duncan Hines mixes with the pudding included, but not necessary) I replace the oil in the recipe with the same amount of applesauce. A lot healthier, and if you don't tell anyone, they won't be able to tell! Gives you a really moist cake.
    HOLY MOLY. A co-worker told me about this and I have never made cake the same. (Heads up...this recipe only works for cake...NOT cupcakes.) Its low-cal too!





    White cake mix


    1 diet sprite


    pkg cool whip...if you want frosting





    MIX and cook as directed on the package. The carbination from the soda causes the cake to rise and it is super moist! Cover with cool whip.


    You can do this with ANY cake mix. Try choc. mix with a diet cherry soda. Delicious combos! Cook and Discover!
    Try going to FOODTV.COM for recipes. It is the food network site. They have more recipes than you will ever need.
    Add mayo instead of oil!

    Sponge Cake Recipe





    4 eggs, separated


    1 cup sugar


    4 Tb cold water


    1 cup sifted cake flour


    1 tsp baking powder





    Oven Temp ~ 325掳 Baking Time ~ 30 Min.





    Beat egg yolks and sugar together until very light. Add water. Sift together flour and baking powder. Add to batter. Beat egg whites until stiff. Fold into batter. Pour batter into prepared pan.





    Bake. Cool completely and invert onto cake platter.





    **************************************鈥?br>




    6 eggs


    1 1/2 cups sugar


    pinch of salt


    1 1/2 cups flour


    1 tsp baking powder


    1/2 cup pineapple or orange juice





    Oven Temp ~ 350掳 Baking Time ~ 1 Hour %26amp; 10 Min.


    Pan Type ~ 10 inch tube pan





    Preheat the oven, Do not grease the pan





    Separate the whites of the eggs and beat them good until stiff. While beating them add 3/4 cup sugar slowly until it's good and foamy (also the salt). Now get to the yellow of the 6 eggs. Also beat them until good and stiff. (Of course, don't forget the 3/4 cup of the sugar which it's left from the 1 1/2 cups of sugar.) Now after the yellow is nice and stiff add slowly the flour which it's already sifted with the baking powder. Alternate the juice and flour slowly. When the flour and juice is mixed up, slowly add the whites (which have been beaten) and very slowly mix it together. I hope you will find it good if you will follow up everything I put down.





    Have you got a tube pan? It's got to be in one. Also, do not grease the pan. Bake it until brown and done. Make sure you turn the pan upside down. Let the cake stay in the pan until it's cold. Then with a knife slowly separate the cake from the sides of the pan, and it will come out easy.Has anybody got a recipe for a 12'; sponge-cake?

    chinese sponge cake





    Prep Time: 15 minutes


    Cook Time: 35 minutes


    Ingredients:


    Sponge Cake


    1 cup cake or pastry flour


    1 tsp baking powder


    1/4 tsp salt


    4 eggs


    3/4 cup sugar


    1 tsp almond extract


    1/4 cup coconut milk


    Coconut Icing:


    2 TB plus 1 tsp pineapple juice


    1 TB plus 2 tsp cornstarch


    1 cup coconut milk


    1/2 cup sugar


    Preparation:


    To Make the Cake:


    Line the bottom of a cake pan with parchment paper. Prepare a wok for steaming.


    Place the flour in a medium bowl. Sift in the baking powder and salt and set aside.


    In a separate bowl, add the sugar to the eggs and beat until they are frothy (about 3 minutes). Stir in the almond extract.


    Gradually add the flour mix to the egg mixture, stirring. Add the coconut milk. Stir until you have a smooth batter that is thoroughly mixed, but do not beat.


    Pour the batter into the pan (ideally it should only come 2/3 to 3/4 up the side of the pan). Steam for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool and remove from the pan, turning the cake over. Cut the cake into squares or diamond shapes.





    To Make the Coconut Icing:


    In a small bowl, mix the pineapple juice and cornstarch and set aside.


    In a medium saucepan, bring the coconut milk and sugar to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add the pineapple juice/cornstarch mixture, stirring. Cook for a few minutes on medium-low heat to thicken. Cook for another minute, then remove and use to ice the cake. Chill the cake until the icing stiffens. Refrigerated in a sealed container, the icing will keep for a few days. It can be used again to ice another sponge cake, or as a simple (but sweet!) dessert for one to two people.

    Has anyone got a recipe for baking a madeira cake or plain vanilla cake in a 14'; square tin?

    I've been advised not to as the sides will cook and brown faster and the middle will be left uncooked.Has anyone got a recipe for baking a madeira cake or plain vanilla cake in a 14'; square tin?

    Grease the inside of your cake tin and cut some greaseproof paper to double line the inside of the walls of the cake tin.Also cut a piece of greaseproof paper to fit the top of your cake. Cut some brown paper and tie it around the outside of the cake tin with some kitchen string.


    That way it should all cook evenly.





    When you pour the cake mixture into the cake tin make a large indentation in the centre and as it cooks, this will rise and disappear leaving the cake evenly flat on the top.Has anyone got a recipe for baking a madeira cake or plain vanilla cake in a 14'; square tin?

    Oil your cake tin and preheat oven to 180C/360F. Mix together your dry ingredients of flour, sugar and bicarbonate. Make a well in the middle and pour in the oil, milk and vanilla - mix well. Pour into cake tin and then sprinkle on the chocolate chips .

    Sheer fluke but this worked so well I do it all the time now, I forgot to put the choc chips in so I sprinkled them on top, also works with cherries. No more sunken choc or cherries
    Cake mix is simply the same amount of everything and half the the no. of oz of each ingredient in eggs.

    Cool: 1 hour


    Stand: 1 hour





    Ingredients


    1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour


    1/2 teaspoon baking powder


    1/4 teaspoon baking soda


    1/2 cup butter


    3/4 cup packed brown sugar


    2 eggs


    1/4 cup rum or pineapple juice


    1/4 cup pineapple juice


    2 tablespoons light-colored corn syrup


    1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger


    1 teaspoon vanilla


    1-3/4 cups mixed dried tropical fruit bits


    1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts or Brazil nuts


    1/3 cup rum or pineapple juice


    1/4 cup rum or pineapple juice





    Directions


    1. Grease and lightly flour eight 1-cup fluted tube pans or six 4-1/2x2-1/2x1-1/2-inch individual loaf pans. Set pans aside.





    2. In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside. In a large bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add brown sugar; beat until combined. Add eggs, one at a time, beating on medium speed until combined. (The batter may appear curdled.) Combine 1/4 cup rum or pineapple juice, 1/4 cup pineapple juice, the corn syrup, ginger, and vanilla. Add flour mixture and rum mixture alternately to butter mixture, beating on low speed after each addition just until combined. Fold in fruit bits and nuts. Spread batter in prepared pan.

Soak eight or six 8-inch-square pieces of double thickness 100-percent cotton cheesecloth with the 1/3 cup rum or pineapple juice. Wrap each cake in rum- or juice-soaked cheesecloth. Wrap each cake tightly in foil or seal in a plastic bag. Chill in refrigerator for 24 hours.





    5. Remove foil or remove cakes from bags; drizzle with 1/4 cup rum or pineapple juice. Rewrap with foil or return to plastic bags and refrigerate at least 24 hours. Remove cheesecloth before serving. If desired, sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar. Makes 6 or 8 cakes (24 servings).

    Friendship Cake


    To Make Starter:


    1 pkg. yeast 1 陆 c. white grape juice


    2 c. sugar 1 lg. can chopped peaches with juice


    Mix together in a covered container and stir every day.





    10th day add:


    2 c. sugar


    1 lg. can crushed pineapple with juice


    Add to above ingredients and stir every day.





    20th day add:


    2 c. sugar


    1 lg. can fruit cocktail with juice


    1 lg. jar maraschino cherries with juice


    Add to above ingredients and stir every day.





    30th day:


    Drain liquid from fruit and divide fruit into thirds. Discard juice.


    To each divided portion of fruit, add:


    1 yellow cake mix


    1 box instant butter pecan or butterscotch pudding


    1 录 c. chopped walnuts


    2/3 c. oil


    4 eggs


    Mix above ingredients and bake in a greased tube or bundt pan at 350潞 for 1 hour. Cool completely before removing from pan. (Tube or bundt pans are best to use because the cake has a tendency to sink in the center when cooling.) If loaf pans are used, do not fill more than 陆 full.





    During the 30 days, the fruit, sugar and yeast mixture should not be refrigerated, but placed in a covered container at room temperature. Fruit will look foamy, and if the container is sealed, the lid may pop off. This is fine, as long as the container remains covered.

    Simple Chocolate Cake





    INGREDIENTS:


    4 (1 oz.) squares unsweetened chocolate


    1/2 cup butter


    1 cup water


    2 cups flour


    2 cups sugar


    pinch of salt


    1/2 cup buttermilk


    1-1/4 tsp. baking soda


    2 eggs, beaten


    1 tsp. vanilla


    2 (1 oz.) squares unsweetened chocolate


    1/4 cup butter


    1/2 cup milk


    4 cups powdered sugar


    2 tsp. vanilla


    PREPARATION:


    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large saucepan, melt 4 squares chocolate and 1/2 cup butter in the hot water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add flour, sugar and salt. Mix well with a wire whisk or eggbeater.





    Then stir in buttermilk, baking soda, eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. Pour into 13x9'; pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until the top springs back when touched with a fingertip.


    While the cake is baking, make the frosting. In a heavy saucepan, melt 2 squares chocolate and 1/4 cup butter together. Add powdered sugar, milk, and 2 tsp. vanilla and beat well. You may need to add more milk or powdered sugar to reach the desired consistency: the frosting should be pourable. W





    hen the cake comes out of the oven, let cool for 15 minutes, then pour the frosting over. Spread if necessary, and let the cake cool. 16 servings
    I would suggest buying a cake mix, then you just have to add a few ingrediates. I think making two round ones would make the nicest cake for New Years. Just bake the round cakes as directed on the box. Put on a cooling rack to cool. You might need to slice a little bit off of the top of the cake that you are planning on putting on the bottom so it will stack better. Put some icing on the top of the bottom cake and then stack the second cake on top. Then ice all the way around.





    To make festive icing you can buy vanilla whipped icing in the store, and add some food coloring to make what ever color you would like. You can also buy decorations to put on the top and they now make icing in packages so that you can write on the top.





    And if all else fails, order one from your favorite store. Take home and out of the box and put on your favorite plate :)
