Hello, I haven't baked for a while and was using this recipe to make a cake for my daughter to decorate for her birthday. It had good reviews and I have baked many cakes in the past so I jumped in without thinking too much. But when I added the milk to the flour I just got huge lumps and crumbs and had to throw it out. What did I do wrong? I got new milk and flour and added them bit by bit alternating between them. I have a cake that tastes good but did not rise much at all.
It will be fine to decorate and eat but I'd love to understand what went wrong with this cake.
I've never seen the instructions to mix flour and milk before mixing with the creamed butter. Can anyone make any guesses?
