If you’re looking for an easy and classic cake recipe, a simple white cake is a delicious and versatile choice. White cake is a classic favorite for birthdays, weddings, and other special occasions. This recipe yields a light and fluffy cake that is sure to please everyone.
To make a simple white cake, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup sugar
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– ½ teaspoon baking soda
– ½ teaspoon salt
– 1 cup butter, softened
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Add the buttermilk and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and spread it out evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, you can frost and decorate your cakes as desired.
Enjoy your delicious and simple white cake!
