Best Yellow Layer Cake by Deb

Best Yellow Layer Cake by Deb

We may be all for convenience and simplicity at Good Bite, but we have a special place in our stomachs for food made with love. We feel wrong opening a package of prefab baked goods and welcoming them into our homes. We like to add a personalized touch to this part of the meal by constructing cookies, cakes and muffins with flour, sugar, butter and eggs from our own pantries. That's why we love this easy, from-scratch recipe for Vanilla Cake with Sour Cream-Chocolate Frosting brought to us by Deb.
