  • Can I use salted butter in the raspberry cake, if I leave out the salt called for in the recipe ? also how many layers does this cake make?

    • Hi Alice, You can use salted butter in place of unsalted. 1 Stick or 1/2 cup of butter typically has about 1/4 teaspoon of salt. It varies by brand. You should check with the brands manufacturer to get the exact amount then can adjust the salt in the recipe if needed. This recipe will yield 2 (9-inch) round cake pans or 1- 9" layer cake. Happy Baking!
