Preparation:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 335°F and preparing two 9-inch round cake pans with grease and flour.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cake flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Add the egg whites, vegetable oil, buttermilk, softened butter, and vanilla. Mix until the batter is smooth.
- Evenly distribute the batter between the two pans.
- Bake for about 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Frosting:
- In a saucepan, whisk together the sugar and flour.
- Gradually add milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
- Cook over medium heat until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency, then cool to room temperature.
- Beat the softened butter until creamy.
- Gradually incorporate the milk mixture, beating well.
- Add vanilla extract and salt, beating until the frosting is fluffy.
- Finish by frosting your cooled cake and get ready to enjoy the divine taste of your White Velvet Cake! It’s a baking adventure that promises to add a touch of magic to your culinary creations.
