Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    Cream the butter and sugar

    In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  3. 3

    Add eggs and vanilla

    Beat in the eggs one at a time, and then stir in the vanilla extract.

  4. 4

    Mix dry ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

  5. 5

    Combine mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  7. 7

    Cool and serve

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh berries before serving.
