Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar with a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar if desired. Slice and serve with tea, coffee, or fresh berries!
