Our new sheet cake recipe is unconventional, but the result—fluffy yellow cake cloaked in dreamy cream cheese frosting—is the birthday cake of our dreams.
If you’ve ever made a cake before, then you might look at the recipe for our Easy Sheet Cake with Chocolate-Cream Cheese Frosting recipe and say to yourself, Wait a second, this is DEFINITELY not how you make a cake. And, well, you're not wrong. Most cakes start by “creaming” butter and sugar, a process in which butter and sugar are beaten together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Because the butter helps protects against gluten development, this cake recipe turns out stellar despite calling for all-purpose flour instead of the more standard cake flour . This wacky 'reverse creaming' technique basically allows you to use the cheap-o flour you probably already have in your pantry, but produces a result more like what you'd get if you actually went through the trouble to leave the house and buy cake flour.
