Method

Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  2. 2

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to combine.

Wet Preparation

  1. 3

    Melt the Butter

    In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter until fully liquid. Allow to cool slightly.

  2. 4

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, whole milk, vanilla extract, and eggs until fully combined.

Combine Ingredients

  1. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently fold with a spatula until just combined; do not overmix.

  2. 6

    Pour into Pans

    Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.

Baking

  1. 7

    Bake the Cakes

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  2. 8

    Cool the Cakes

    Once baked, remove from the oven and allow cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Frosting Preparation

  1. 9

    Make the Frosting

    In a mixing bowl, beat together the unsalted butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and smooth.

  2. 10

    Frost the Cakes

    Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving platter. Spread a generous layer of frosting on top, then place the second layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake.
