How to Make Simple Cake Flour

This worked like a charm, and I had no idea how simple it was to make. No need to purchase cake flour when you can easily make your own in a pinch.

• Ready In: 2 mins
• Serves: 8-10
• Yields: 2 cups

Ingredients

• 1  cup  flour - 2 tablespoons flour
• 2  tablespoons cornstarch

Directions

1. When your recipe calls for cake flour, all you need to do is add some cornstarch and use a little less flour.
2. For every 1 cup of flour the recipe calls for, subtract 2 tablespoons flour from the cup and replace with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch.
3. Then mix like usual in your recipe, and you'll have a lighter flour to make cakes and cookies.
