If you’re looking for a classic cake recipe, look no further than this delicious Simple White Cake! This vanilla cake is one of the most popular cakes around and is perfect for any occasion.
To start, you’ll need the following ingredients: 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1 cup of unsalted butter (room temperature), 1 and 3/4 cup of sugar, 4 large eggs (room temperature), 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, and 1 cup of buttermilk (room temperature).
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract.
Alternately add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before turning them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cakes are cooled, you can frost them with your favorite frosting. This classic vanilla cake is sure to be a hit at any gathering!
