If you’re looking for a classic cake recipe, then look no further! We have just the one for you – the classic Simple White Cake! This vanilla cake is the perfect addition to any special occasion, whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or just a special treat.
To get started, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup butter, softened
– 2 cups white sugar
– 4 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup buttermilk
Now that you have everything you need, let’s get started!
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, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing just until incorporated.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 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 turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cakes are cooled, you can frost them with your favorite frosting. For a classic look, use a simple buttercream frosting.
And there you have it – your classic Simple White Cake! Enjoy!
