Cake Preparation

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. 7

    Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the baking dish.
