If you’re looking for a classic cake recipe, then look no further! Here is a delicious, simple white cake recipe that is sure to please all cake lovers. This vanilla cake recipe is a classic for any occasion, from birthdays to weddings to anniversaries.
To make this cake, you’ll need two and a half cups of all-purpose flour, a teaspoon of baking powder, a half teaspoon of baking soda, a teaspoon of salt, three-quarters of a cup of butter, one and a quarter cups of granulated sugar, two large eggs, one and a half teaspoons of vanilla extract, one cup of milk, and one and a half tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour two nine-inch round cake pans. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, and then stir in the vanilla extract. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk and vegetable oil. Mix until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire cooling rack. Cool completely before frosting. Enjoy!
