Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the flour mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
-
Once the cake is cooled, cut it into 8 equal-sized rectangles.
-
In a medium bowl, beat together the marshmallow creme, powdered sugar, and vegetable shortening until smooth and fluffy.
-
Spread the marshmallow filling onto 4 of the cake rectangles, then top each with another cake rectangle to make a sandwich.

Serve and enjoy!
