[@clarissalench2735]

I made this cake this morning and it is superb! Frosting not too sweet. I love swiss and italian buttercream but they take a little too long to make at times. This frosting was done in 10 mins. Love 'Preppy Kitchen' - John's enthusiasm for his dishes shines thru every video. Thank u

[@jessicacaraballo645]

[@khanhluong5100]

I've made this twice so far with half the amount of powdered sugar (~200g only) for the buttercream, and it was definitely still sweet. I really appreciate the recipes! Thank you!!!

[@mytwowoodpeckers9497]

I made this cake today, and it turned out awesome! I used King Arthur cake flour instead of AP flour and cornstarch, and it was so light and fluffy. This is such an excellent recipe, and the chocolate buttercream is to die for! Now, on to the Funfetti cake! Thanks John, keep up the amazing work, you're the BEST!!!

[@alaura5147]

How much cake flour did you use?

[@mytwowoodpeckers9497]

@@alaura5147 I used 2 1/2 cups of cake flour. The recipe calls for 2 1/4 cups of AP flour and 1/4 cup of cornstarch. Since I used cake flour instead of AP and cornstarch, I used 2 1/2 cups. It's a really good recipe, I hope you give it a try!

[@gylchrissprauve3760]

The recipe is right on the money. I've been enjoying the foolproof results that come with weighing dry ingredients. I doubled the recipe to make 1/4 sheet cake, and got enough extra batter to fill two cereal bowls (1 of which I devoured straight out of the oven! HA!). At first I was a little worried when the batter seemed somewhat thinner than usual as I poured it into the pans, but I turned the temperature down to 335º with the homemade cake strips, and 40 or so minutes later, PERFECTION. 2 out of 2, John! Thanks for making cake baking easy again! Let's see which of your recipes I'll try next...carrot cake, perhaps?

[@JackieDannenberg]

I have this cake in the oven as I type. I made a couple of alterations. I don’t do anything with egg whites so I just used 4 eggs. Not sure what difference it’s really going to make but I hate wasting stuff. I also used two 9” cake pans even though you said to double the recipe if you do that, I didn’t. It seemed to be more batter than you make up in a box mix so I thought I’d do it that way. I figured in the end if both pans didn’t really get filled up at it baked, I’d only use one pan next time but at the 10 minute mark they’ve risen a BUNCH so two cake pans it is ! There’s only two of us in this house anyway. I’m excited about how this will come out. Thanks so much !
