Cake Ingredients
Method
Cake Directions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 10-inch round cake pans.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugar
In another bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 5-7 minutes.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Pour Batter into Pans
Divide the batter evenly among the three prepared pans.
Bake the Cake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool the Cakes
Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then turn them out onto wire racks to cool completely.
