If you’re looking for an easy and delicious cake to make, look no further than the classic Simple White Cake. This vanilla cake recipe is a staple in any baker’s repertoire, as it’s a delicious and easy to make cake that everyone will love.
To make the cake, you’ll need:
– 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup sugar
– 3 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup butter
– 2 eggs
– 1 cup milk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or two knives, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy. Add the milk and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Grease two 8-inch cake pans with butter or cooking spray. Divide the batter evenly between the two pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake has cooled, you can frost it with your favorite icing. This simple white cake is a classic dessert that is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. Enjoy!
