Mommy took a cake decorating class in Utah with Julie Hale when Daniel was a baby. She learned so valuable tips for making cakes.
One is a recipe to use to coat the cake pans so the cake won't stick. Mix up the following ingredients:
1 part Crisco
1 part vegetable oil
1 part flour
Generously grease the cake pans. Use a lighter coat along the edges and a heavier coat on the bottoms and corners of the pan.

To make a light and fluffy cake, substitute whole milk for the water in a boxed mix.
