Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven: Set it to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with a little butter and flour to prevent sticking.
  • Cream the butter and sugar: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla: One by one, crack the eggs into the mixture, mixing well after each addition, and then pour in the vanilla extract.
  • Combine the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this to the butter mixture, folding gently until just combined.
  • Pour and bake: Transfer the batter into your prepared cake pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 30–35 minutes.
  • Cool and serve: Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Once cooled, slice and serve with garnishes.
