Cake is a classic dessert that can be enjoyed at any occasion. Whether you’re throwing a birthday party or just want to indulge in a sweet treat, a cake is always a great choice. If you’re looking for a delicious, easy-to-make cake recipe, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s a classic white cake recipe that’s sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
To make this simple yet delicious white cake, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 2 and ½ cups cake flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– ½ teaspoon baking soda
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ cup butter, softened
– 1 and ½ cups granulated white sugar
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 4 large eggs
– 1 cup buttermilk
First, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease and flour your cake pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk and starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat the batter until it’s smooth.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, you can frost the cakes with your favorite frosting.
Enjoy your delicious classic white cake!
