Here are a few tips that you can apply to most cakes. 1) Grease your pans and then line with parchment paper, grease parchment paper 2) Use 1 cup coffee and 1 cup milk 3) You don't have to sift the dry ingredients, just take a whisk after you combine them and whisk well 4) Use a LARGE Tablespoon of Mayo when you add the eggs 5) Add 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil with eggs 6) Replace vanilla extract with vanilla bean paste 7) Replace all-purpose flour with cake flour Also, if you plan on frosting this, let the cake cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap (make sure no cake is exposed to air), then stick in the freezer over night. Take it out and put it on your cake board pulling off the parchment paper ONLY when you are ready to add the next layer..this will keep your cake from falling apart on you. "Crumb" coat it with a thin layer of frosting and stick in the fridge to harden up. This will prevent crumbs from getting into decorating frosting. Hope this helps! This will add moistness for those of you who were finding this cake to be dry!
