Combine first 6 ingredients (flour through baking soda)
Mix in eggs and butter
Pour into 9x13 baking dish, 2 round cake pans, or 26 cupcake molds
I recommend frosting the cake or cupcakes with Wilton's Buttercream or Chocolate Buttercream frosting.
The cake is so moist that it's also delicious simply topped with powdered sugar after it cools. You could also mix powdered sugar with a tiny bit of water to create a simple icing.
Kelli likes to half the recipe and ice her 8" square cake with simple peanut butter frosting made by mixing together 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 cup peanut butter, and 3 tbsp milk.
