Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground allspice
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 1 cups Whole milk
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in three parts, alternating with the milk (beginning and ending with the dry ingredients). Mix just until combined—do not overmix.

Step 6

Pour the batter evenly 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, turn the cake out onto a wire rack and let it cool completely.

Step 9

Once the cake is fully cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for a simple, elegant finish.

Step 10

Slice, serve, and enjoy the warm, homemade flavors of Sister Little's Spice Cake!
