QUEEN ANNE'S LACE CAKE

This cake is very good! My whole family gets together for dinner at our parent's house every Sunday and I always bring a dessert. This is my sister and brother-in-law's favorite! I got the recipe out of a cookbook I bought on QVC. "Best of the Best from QVC Cookbook". This recipe was submitted by Vivian C. Ferguson. The recipe calls for the chocolate to be shaved , but that's too much work for me. I just grind up the chocolate in my food processor.

Tips:

To make sure your cake rises evenly, use room temperature ingredients.
Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a light and airy cake.
Gradually add the eggs to the batter, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Sift the flour and baking powder together before adding them to the batter. This will help to ensure that the cake is light and fluffy.
Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake rises evenly.
Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Queen Anne's Lace Cake is a delicious and beautiful cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is light and airy, with a delicate flavor that is sure to please everyone.
