If you’re looking for a classic cake recipe to add to your baking repertoire, then this simple white cake is a must-try! Made with just a few basic ingredients, this vanilla cake recipe is surprisingly easy to make and keeps everyone coming back for seconds.

To start, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

In a large bowl, combine 2 ½ cups of cake flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon of salt. In a separate bowl, cream 1 cup of butter and 2 cups of white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 3 eggs, one at a time.

In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon of almond extract. Alternating between the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients, add the mixture gradually to the creamed butter and sugar. Divide the batter evenly into the two prepared pans.

Bake the cakes for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in their pans for 10 minutes before turning them out onto racks to cool completely.

Once cooled, fill and frost the cake as desired. This simple white cake is sure to be a hit with family and friends!
