King Arthur Elegant White Cake

Elegant White Cake

For Tim’s birthday cake I decided to do the King Arthur elegant white cake with cream cheese frosting. I made two 9 inch cakes and layered them. After frosting them I pressed heath toffee bits around the edge. It was some thing easy and fast. I am not the best at writing with an icing tip. The candy pieces added just the right amount of elegance and crunch to the cake.



Elegant White Cake

Ingredients

Directions

Cream together butter through almond extract until light and fluff, at least 5 minutes.

Add egg whites one at a time and beat well after each addition.

Stir in flour and milk, alternating between the two, starting and ending with the flour. (i.e. 1/3 flour, 1/2 milk, 1/3 flour, 1/2 milk, 1/3 flour)

Pour into pans (2 9-in. round or one 9×13-in) and bake at 350. 25-30 minutes or until done.


Cream Cheese Frosting

Ingredients 

Directions

Beat together butter, cream cheese and vanilla. Add powdered sugar gradually while scraping edges of the bowl as you go.

Makes enough to frost a 2 layered (9 inch) cake or a 9×13 inch cake.



Before frosting the cake place a few pieces of parchment or wax paper just under the edges of the cake. This will keep the plate clean as you frost. Now place about a tablespoon of heath bits in your palm at a time and press along the outside edges of the cake. Cover all the edges of the cake with heath pieces. It will take about one-third to one-half of the bag of heath toffee bits.When you are done frosting and pressing toffee pieces into the edges. Gently remove parchment/wax paper. Now your plate is perfectly clean from frosting and candies.

Now you are ready to enjoy your delicious cake. You will impress everyone with how nice it looks, yet it was so easy to accomplish.
