Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans.
- In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- 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.
