My daughter Trixie requested a yellow cake for her birthday. I found this recipe on Recipezaar and tried it. It came out a bit thin but tasted very good! I might double the recipe and cook a little longer the next time.
*UPDATE* Do not double this recipe and still use 2 9" rounds. It will make a mess of your oven. Use two 9x13's instead. Ask me how I know...
