Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans.

  3. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until smooth.

  7. Allow cakes to cool completely before frosting.

Notes

  • For best results, use room-temperature ingredients.
  • Ensure cake layers are completely cooled before frosting to avoid melting the frosting.
