HIGH-ALTITUDE BUTTERMILK DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE
This recipe was given to me by my great-aunt Julee over 40 years ago and I have had to convert it from SE Oklahoma Mountain area altitude to our altitude. We live in NM between 5000 feet and 7000 feet and I bake this 3-layer cake often for my family. If making a sheet cake, I use an 11 x 15 pan for this recipe.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat three 9-inch round cake pans generously with cooking spray.
- Mix cake flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
- Beat white sugar, 1 cup butter, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon almond extract together in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Pour in half of the buttermilk and mix well. Beat in eggs one at a time.
- Beat half of the flour mixture into the creamed butter mixture. Add remaining buttermilk; beat well to combine. Add remaining flour mixture and beat until batter is smooth, about 1 minute. Pour batter into prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 26 to 30 minutes. Let cool in pans, about 15 minutes. Invert onto wire racks and cool completely before frosting, about 45 minutes.
- Beat 1 1/4 cups butter, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon almond extract in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Beat in milk gradually. Add confectioners' sugar, 2 cups at a time, scraping sides of the bowl as needed, until frosting is smooth. Increase speed to high and beat, adding more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until frosting is fluffy and spreadable.
- Spread frosting between cake layers and smooth over top and sides of cake.

DAREDEVIL'S FOOD CAKE WITH MOCHA BUTTERCREAM ICING
You can bake this cake as two layers, fill it with your favorite fruit preserves (try black cherry or raspberry), and frost it with the Mocha Buttercream Icing. Or bake it in a tube pan and top it with any icing or just a light sifting of cocoa or confectioners' sugar (like snow on mountaintops!).

Steps:
- Pan preparation:
- Generously coat the pan(s) with solid shortening, line with baking parchment or wax paper (for a tube or Bundt pan, cut a paper or foil ring), grease the liner, and dust with sifted cocoa; tap out the excess cocoa.
- Make cake:
- Position rack in center of oven. Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa. Set aside.
- In the large bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar for 3 to 4 minutes, until very well blended. Scrape down the bowl and beater. Beat in the vanilla and eggs and scrape down the bowl and beater again.
- With the mixer on the lowest speed, alternately add the flour mixture and the buttermilk. Once the ingredients are blended together, increase the speed and whip for about 30 seconds (no longer, because at high altitudes you don't want to incorporate excess air).
- Divide the batter between the two pans or scrape it all into the tube pan. Bake 30 minutes for layers, 38 to 40 minutes for tube cake (or for the time indicated for your altitude in the chart), or until the cake top feels springy to the touch and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan(s) on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Run a knife between the layers and the pan sides to release them, or run the tip of a knife around the pan sides and the top of the tube to loosen the cake. Top each layer, or the tube pan, with a foil-covered cardboard cake disk or flat plate, invert, and give a sharp downward shake to release the cake. Remove the pan and peel off the parchment. Cool completely.
- Make icing:
- In a food processor or the large bowl of an electric mixer, preferably with the paddle attachment, process or beat the butter until soft. Add 2 cups of the sifted sugar and beat until smooth. Scrape down the bowl and blade or beaters. Add the remaining 4 cups sugar, plus cocoa, 5 tablespoons coffee, and vanilla, and process or beat until completely smooth and creamy. Add more sugar or coffee if necessary to bring the icing to spreading consistency. (The icing can be made a day in advance and refrigerated, covered; bring to room temperature and beat until smooth before using.)
- Fill the layers and frost with the buttercream, or dust the tube cake lightly with cocoa or confectioners' sugar (or frost as desired).
- Cooks' Note
- Quantities for the icing remain the same at all altitudes, but if you are baking the cake at high elevation, follow the adjustments below.
- If baking at 3,000 feet:
- Increase flour to 2¼ cups plus 1 tablespoon. Decrease baking soda to 1⅛ teaspoons. Increase salt to ½ teaspoon. All other quantities remain as above. Place rack in center of oven; bake at 375°F: layers for 30-35 minutes, tube cake for 30-32 minutes.
- If baking at 5,000 feet:
- Increase flour to 2⅓ cups. Decrease baking soda to 1 teaspoon. Increase salt to ½ teaspoon. Decrease granulated sugar to 1½ cups minus 1 tablespoon. Increase buttermilk to 1½ cups plus 3 tablespoons. All other quantities remain as above. Place rack in center of oven; bake at 375°F: layers for 30-35 minutes, tube cake for 35-40 minutes.
- If baking at 7,000 feet:
- Increase flour to 2⅓ cups. Decrease baking soda to 1 teaspoon. Increase salt to ½ teaspoon. Decrease granulated sugar to 1½ cups minus 2 tablespoons. Increase buttermilk to 1¾ cups. All other quantities remain as above. Place rack in lower third of oven; bake at 350°F: layers for 30-35 minutes, tube cake for 35-40 minutes.
- If baking at 10,000 feet:
- Increase flour to 2½ cups minus 1 tablespoon. Decrease baking soda to ¾ teaspoon. Increase salt to ½ teaspoon. Decrease granulated sugar to 1½ cups minus 2 tablespoon. Add one additional egg. Increase buttermilk to 1½ cups plus 3 tablespoons. All other quantities remain as above. Rack in lower third of oven; bake at 350°F: layers for 30-33 minutes, tube cake for 40-43 minutes.
BUTTERMILK DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE WITH FRESHLY SQUEEZED ORANGE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
This is my all-time favorite devils food chocolate cake. Inspired by Anne Byrn the Cake Mix Doctor I have become quite a fan of jazzing up cake mix. I have a host of decadent frostings for all my cakes, but let me entice you here to try this deep rich chocolate cake adorned with freshly squeezed orange cream cheese frosting. You're going to love this super easy cake. This is definitely one of my personal favorites!
