Coconut-Free Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

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

  2. 2

    Mix Butter and Sugar

    In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  3. 3

    Add Eggs

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  4. 4

    Combine Dry Ingredients

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

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

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

  6. 6

    Add Vanilla

    Stir in the vanilla extract until evenly distributed.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool

    Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
