Whole foods yellow cake recipe?

I love the whole foods strawberry buttercream cake, but I can't seem to recreate their yellow cake recipe. It's not too sweet and I defnitely think there's some cormeal in there, because I detect the flavor, other than that I've scoured the internet looking for a copycat but haven't found anything.

Anyone know of a similar cornmeal yellow cake recipe that tastes like the heavenly whole foods kind?

    Haven't tried this, but people, professional chefs and even a bakery owner or two seem to rave about this one:

      The absolute best yellow cake I have ever tasted (and made) was Shirley Corriher's Magnificent Moist Golden Cake:

      It is so good I didn't even want to frost it. I can just eat this cake without any frosting. It is yellow cake perfection.
