Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or cooking spray. Set it aside.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.

  3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated into the mixture.

  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and mix until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until no lumps remain, but be careful not to overmix.

  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth out the top with a spatula for an even surface.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

  9. Once done, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  10. You can serve the Very Easy Cake as it is or frost it with your favorite frosting for an extra special touch. Enjoy a slice with a cup of tea or coffee for a delightful treat!
