Dessert Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  2. 2

    Combine Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Mix Together

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

  4. 4

    Bake the Dessert

    Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  5. 5

    Let Cool and Serve

    Allow the dessert to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Once cool, dust with powdered sugar and serve with fresh berries, if desired.
