Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup whole milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two small round cake pans.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sugar until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing fully after each addition.
  4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined to maintain fluffiness.
  5. Gently fold in the milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
  6. Pour the batter evenly into prepared pans and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown; check doneness with a toothpick—it should come out clean.
  7. Allow cakes to cool completely before decorating or serving.
