Moist White Cake

This is almost a white mud cake texture. I love my cakes moist and dense... let me know your review :-)

Ingredients 
1 cup milk (or buttermilk) 
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp white vinegar

5 egg whites 
2 1/4 teaspoons vanilla

3 cups plain flour
2 cups white sugar
2 tblsp baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup oil

1 cup boiling water


1/ Preheat oven to 175* (160* fan forced).

2/ Spray your cake tin with oil spray.

3/ In a measuring jug combine the milk and vinegar. Allow to sit for a minute and then add the baking soda.

4/ In a medium bowl lightly combine the egg whites, 1/4 cup of the soured milk mixture and the vanilla.

5/ In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients.

6/ Add the oil and remaining 3/4 cup soured milk mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix on low speed until  ingredients are moistened. Increase to medium speed and beat for 2 minutes to aerate.

7/ Scrape down the sides and add 1/3 of the egg mixture, beating for 20 seconds to incorporate. Continue in the same method twice more until all the egg mixture has been incorporated.

8/ Add the boiling water. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Beat on low to incorporate then increase to high for 30 seconds.

9/ Pour in to the prepared pan.

10/ Bake for 35 minutes or so.
