1
Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350u00b0. Lightly grease the bottoms of 2 (8-inch) round cake pans; line each with a round of waxed paper trimmed to fit and then grease the paper and the sides of the pan.

Lightly flour, tapping out the excess.
3
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
4
Add the butter, vegetable shortening, milk, eggs and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally to make a thick, fluffy batter. Stir in the chopped (large

6
Divide the batter between the pans, smoothing the tops.

Drop each cake pan onto your work surface to level batter and remove air bubbles.

Run a knife around the edges and invert the layers peeling off the waxed paper.
