Ingredients

• 2 and 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
• 3 t. baking powder
• 1/4 t. salt
• 1 & 1/2 c granulated sugar
• 1/2 c. (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour two 8″ round cake pans. Set aside.

2. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into a medium bowl. Set aside.

3. In the bowl of a mixer with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Scrape down bowl with spatula.

4. Add eggs, one at a time — mixing fully until combined.

5. Add vanilla. Mix well.

6. Slowly add half of the flour mixture, then the milk.

7. Add remaining flour mixture. Mix until just combined.

8. Distribute batter evenly between the two cake pans and bake for 22 to 25 minutes, or until skewer inserted in center of each cake comes out clean. Cool completely before frosting.
