How to Make the Recipe

Now, let’s dive into the step-by-step process of making this delicious cake:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Grease two 9-inch round cake pans with butter and dust with flour to prevent sticking.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
4. In another bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy—about 3-5 minutes.
5. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, add the vanilla extract and mix further.
6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
7. Evenly divide the batter between the prepared pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Once baked, let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
9. Once completely cool, frost with your favorite icing or serve plain with a dusting of powdered sugar.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some helpful suggestions to ensure your cake turns out perfectly:

• Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature for better mixing.
• Don’t overmix the batter; mix until just combined for a light texture.
