*Golden Layer Cake

2 1/4 cups sifted cake flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup milk, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 unbeaten eggs

Grease two 9-inch cake pans; line with waxed paper and grease paper lightly. Preheat oven to 350°. Sift dry ingredients together. Add shortening, 3/4 cup milk and vanilla and beat 2 minutes at high speed with electric mixer. Add 1/4 cup milk and the eggs; beat 2 minutes longer. Pour batter into prepared cake pans. Bake for 25 minutes, or until cake tests done. Cake will bounce back when lightly touched with finger. Cool cake 5 to 10 minutes in pan on wire racks, then remove cake from pans and cool completely.

*14 Layer Cake

-Cake:
1 Duncan Hines Yellow Cake Mix
1 Cup Water
1/2 cup Crisco Cooking Oil
4 Eggs
1 Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix (regular size)
-Chocolate Frosting
1/2 cup Buttermilk
1 1/2 stick Margarine
4 heaping tablespoons Cocoa
1 1/2 boxes of Ten X sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla & pinch of Salt

-Cake
Mix as usual the ingredients above for the cake. Grease and flour pans.
Put 1/2 cup of batter in each pan. Spread evenly over
bottom of pan. Bake at 325-350 degrees for 15 min. Watch closely.
Cool completely before spreading icing. (Each Cake Mix makes 7 layers) You may need to insert something down the center of the layers as you start getting some height built up to keep the cake layers from sliding so you end up with a pretty cake when finished.
-Chocolate Frosting
(1/2 cup of regular Milk and 1 tablespoon Vinegar can be mixed and substituted for Buttermilk)
While margarine melts stir in Cocoa, then add Milk and let start tobubble (lowest heat) Remove from heat and add one box sugar(sifted) Then add more Sugar until good spreading consistency.
Frost between each layer then frost sides and top.
