Quick Tips:
To make cake using
white frosting design, remove 1/4 cup of vanilla frosting before adding
melted chocolate and cocoa powder. Then reserve 2 1/2 cups of chocolate
frosting instead of 2 3/4 cup.
To melt chocolate in the
microwave, cook on high for 30 seconds, stir and continue cooking for
additional 15 seconds. Repeat this process until chocolate is melted,
but not hot.
Before frosting Bundt cake or cupcakes, allow
frosting to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before
using.
Baking Tips:
· If your baking soda is older than
6 months, consider replacing it with a fresh package. Baking soda is an
active ingredient used to help make baked foods rise, so for best
results, always use the freshest ingredients.
· Be careful not
to over mix your cake batter. Mix just until all ingredients are
combined, since over mixing will give you a denser, heavier cake.
· Remember to use regular cream cheese. Substituting with low-fat or
fat-free cream cheese may change the consistency of the frosting.
