Classic Butter Cake (King Arthur Whole Grain Baking, P368)

PREP: Quick (10-15 minutes)
TASTE: VERY good fresh, a bit heavy a day or so later
REPEAT: YES definitely
NOTES: Tried this cake for our son Riley's 4 year birthday party. It was his turn to have a big party and the theme was Thomas the Tank engine, of course! The cake came out VERY moist and perfectly rich and yummy. By the second day, after getting frosted and decorated, it started to dry out and feel very heavy. The kids didn't like it as much as store bought at this point. It's quick to make and cooks quickly too so it might be a great desert cake with whipped topping and fresh fuit. Nice whole grain cake recipe.
