Classic Vanilla Cake
A moist and delicious vanilla cake recipe perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
2 cups of all-purpose flour
1 cup of unsalted butter, softened
1 3/4 cups of granulated sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter until creamy, about 2 minutes.
Gradually add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Beat in eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to fully incorporate before adding the next.
Beat in vanilla extract.
With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture and mix until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops.
Bake for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
