Cómo preparar Lane Cake
- **Prepare the Cake:** Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- **Cream Butter and Sugar:** In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- **Combine Dry Ingredients:** In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 3 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- **Alternate Wet and Dry Ingredients:** Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with 1 cup buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix well after each addition.
- **Add Flavor and Egg Whites:** Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gently fold in 4 large egg whites.
- **Bake the Layers:** Pour batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- **Cool the Cakes:** Let cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- **Prepare the Filling:** In a medium saucepan, whisk together 4 large egg yolks, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter.
- **Cook the Filling:** Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (about 20 minutes).
- **Add Filling Ingredients:** Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup shredded coconut, 1 cup chopped pecans, 1/2 cup raisins, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- **Cool the Filling:** Let the filling cool completely.
- **Prepare the Frosting:** Combine 2 cups granulated sugar, 1/2 cup cornstarch, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 cup milk, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter in the top of a double boiler.
- **Beat the Frosting:** Beat at low speed for 30 seconds, then place over simmering water. Beat on high speed for 7 minutes, or until stiff peaks form.
- **Finish the Frosting:** Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat for 1 minute more until thick enough to spread.
- **Assemble the Cake:** Spread a layer of filling between each cake layer and on top of the final layer. Frost the sides and top of the cake with the prepared frosting.
- **Garnish (Optional):** Garnish with pecan halves, if desired.
