Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups cake flour
1 tsp salt
1 Tbls baking powder
1 Tbls powdered milk
1/2 cup water

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º.
Prepare cake pans by lightly greasing with shortening, then dusting with flour.

In large bowl, mix the flour, salt and baking powder. Set aside.

In small bowl or measuring cup, stir the powdered milk into the water and mix until dissolved. Combine the liquid milk with the powdered milk mixture and set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the shortening and sugar until fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add about half the flour mixture,beating until just incorporated, and then half the milk mixture, beating again beating until just incorporated. Repeat this step, adding the remaining flour with the remaining liquid, and beat until just smooth (about 1 minute). Be sure to scrap down the sides of the bowls once or twice during the mixing.

Pour the batter in to the prepared cake pans and bake in preheated oven for about 20-30 minutes. The cooking time will vary depending on how many cake pans you use and how full they are. The cake is done when it springs back when lightly pressed near the center with your finger. Allow the cake to cool for a few munutes in the pan, and then turn out onto cooling rack to cool completely.
