If you’re looking for a classic cake recipe, look no further than this Simple White Cake. This deliciously moist, vanilla-flavored cake is sure to be the hit of your next gathering.
To begin, preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare two 8-inch round cake pans by greasing and flouring them.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup softened butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 eggs one at a time, then mix in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Alternate adding the dry ingredients and 1 cup of milk to the butter and sugar mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the two cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely before frosting.
For a perfect finish, frost your Simple White Cake with your favorite frosting. Enjoy!
