My Favorite Farmhouse Baking Hacks • Southern Chick Journal

Let’s get baking…farmhouse style! Here are a few of my favorite DIY baking hacks. Enjoy!

The Glass Bottle Angel Food Cake Cooler Trick

Angel food cake can be tricky to cool…don’t let it go flat! When you pop it out of the oven, flip it upside down (still in its pan) over a glass long neck bottle. It keeps it fluffy and cools it great!

Cool an Angel food cake by turning it upside down over a glass bottle. I found this glass bottle in the woods at our farm!

After it’s cooled, flip it over and pop it out! Perfectly fluffy and cooked angle food cake. Yummy!

EGGcelent Mini Cupcakes

Upcycle an egg carton by filling it with mini cupcakes. They fit perfectly and make a cute farmhouse surprise!

Our neighbor always gives us delicious farm fresh eggs. As a thank you, I filled the egg carton he gave us with homemade mini cupcakes (made using his eggs)…He loved it!

The Room Temperature Butter Trick

Don’t wait around forever for butter to get to room temperature. Instead, fill a glass cup with water, put it in the microwave for 2 minutes, let the water sit for 2 minutes, empty the water and place the cup over a stick of butter for 10 minutes. Room temperature butter ready in no time!
