This cake is delicious. Fluffy and moist and the frosting is so light and airy and yummy. I love your recipes!

In reply to Jody. Yes, you can use that for a buttermilk substitute. It would be fine to use half butter and half shortening too without making any adjustments.

A couple questions: If I don’t have buttermilk can I use the vinegar or lemon juice mixed with milk version in place of buttermilk?
Also, I don’t have Danish butter and will be using regular butter but I’d like to mix shortening and butter together. Would I just use half cup of each regular butter and shortening and follow the recipe the same way you wrote it? Or do any changes need to be made using shortening with butter?
Thanks.

In reply to JILL A DAVIES. Hi, Jill! Yes, I would rotate the pans about halfway through to make sure they bake evenly.

I am making this for my husband’s birthday. Should I rotate the pans during baking since I don’t have a double oven?

In reply to Maria Garcia. Just fixed it! You want to use 1 cup (230 grams) of butter in the cake and 1 cup (230 grams) in the frosting.

In reply to Jerri. Yes, absolutely! If you still do three layers, I would reduce the baking time slightly. They will be a little thin, but it would still work. Or you can divide the batter between two 9-inch round pans and increase the baking time by about 5 minutes.

I was wondering if there was a mistake on the amount of butter, the call calls for 1 cup (1 cup Danish Creamery European style unsalted butter softened (115 grams); the frosting also calls for 1 cup of unsalted butter (1 cup Danish Creamery European style unsalted butter softened (230 grams)) but if you look at the grams listed for each the frosting is using 2X as much. So is one 1/2 Cup of unsalted butter?

Can I use 9 inch round pans?
