Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for frosting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a large bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

For the frosting, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until stiff peaks form.

Step 10

Once the cakes are completely cooled, spread a generous layer of frosting on top of one cake layer. Place the second layer on top and frost the entire cake.

Step 11

Optional: Decorate the cake with sprinkles, fresh fruit, or additional piping of frosting.

Step 12

Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
