Dozen Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the batter will bake evenly.

2. 2

   Prepare Baking Dish

   Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.

3. 3

   Mix Dry Ingredients

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

4. 4

   Cream Butter and Sugar

   In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and the remaining granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes with a hand mixer.

5. 5

   Add Eggs and Vanilla

   Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.

6. 6

   Combine Mixtures

   Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

7. 7

   Pour Batter

   Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

8. 8

   Bake

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

9. 9

   Cool and Dust

   Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Then, dust the top with powdered sugar before slicing into pieces.
