A classic Simple White Cake is an easy, delicious, and versatile cake recipe that can be adapted to many different occasions. It’s a great starting point for anyone learning how to make cakes.
This Simple White Cake recipe is made with all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, butter, sugar, eggs, and milk. The ingredients are blended together to form a light and fluffy batter, then poured into a greased and floured baking pan. After baking in the oven, the cake is cooled and frosted with your favorite frosting.
To start, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated.
Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the butter and sugar mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until everything is well blended.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting.
Frost with your favorite frosting and enjoy!
