Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

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

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Beat Eggs and Sugar

    In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

    Combine Mixtures

    Slowly add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, alternating with the whole milk, and mix until just combined.

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

    Cool the Cake

    Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
