Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Unsalted butter, softened
- 1.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 6 large Egg whites, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whole milk, room temperature
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set the dry ingredients aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar using a hand or stand mixer on medium-high speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Add in the egg whites, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately add the dry ingredients and the milk to the batter, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Use about 3 additions for the dry ingredients and 2 for the milk. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.
Step 6
Evenly divide the batter between the prepared pans, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake the cakes in the preheated oven for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Once cooled, frost the cakes with your favorite frosting and decorate as desired.
