Instructions
Step-by-Step Baking
-
(step 1): Prepare the pan and preheat the oven.
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
-
(step 2): Combine dry ingredients.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
-
(step 3): Cream butter and sugar.
In a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat the softened butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
-
(step 4): Add eggs and vanilla.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
(step 5): Alternate adding wet and dry ingredients.
With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in three parts, alternating with the milk in two parts. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
-
(step 6): Bake the cake.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
(step 7): Cool and serve.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
