This Simple White Cake is the perfect classic cake recipe. Whether you’re looking for a cake for a special occasion or just wanting to make a delicious dessert for your family, this is the perfect recipe.
To make this simple cake you’ll need:
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 cups granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
– 1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
– 4 large eggs, at room temperature
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans, then set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the butter and mix with an electric mixer on low speed until the mixture has a sandy texture.
In a separate bowl, combine the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined. Increase the speed to medium and mix for 1 minute.
Divide the batter evenly between the two cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool for 10 minutes in the pans before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cakes are cool, you can frost them with your favorite frosting. Enjoy!
