Ingredients para Cake

1.5 C All Purpose Flour
1.5 C Cake Flour
1/2 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tbsp cream of tartar
1 tbsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
2 sticks (1 cup) softened butter
1.75 C sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1.25 C milk

Note:

This cake is DENSE. You'll take it out of the oven and be like, OMGWTF IS THIS???? Just trust me on this one. ;)

Preheat oven to 325.
Butter and flour your cake pan.
Stick the flours, baking powder, cream of tartar, salt and cinnamon in a sifter and sift into a bowl. Set aside.
Beat sugar and butter together until pale and fluffy, like a Snuff. You want some AIR in there. (I made a rhyme.)
Mix in vanilla and eggs, one at a time.
From here, alternate adding milk and the try ingredients to your butter-sugar-egg-vanilla mixture.
Pour into cake pans and bake for 35 mins, or until toothpick comes out clean.

Frosting

I don't measure with frosting, and I never make frosting the same way twice. So. Good luck with these instructions. =)

1 bowl
1 mixer
1 a lot of powdered sugar
1 half-and-half/milk
1 butter (.5-1 stick)
1 cinnamon
VANILLA

Use lotsa sugar, dump in some milk and butter, mix vigorously. Should be the consistency of concrete. Add vanilla and cinnamon to taste.
Trust me, the frosting should be THICK. If you scoop it, it shouldn't fall off of the spoon.
