Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). This ensures the oven is hot enough to bake the cake evenly.

2. 2

   Combine Dry Ingredients

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

3. 3

   Cream Butter and Sugar

   In a separate bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter until creamy. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.

4. 4

   Add Eggs and Vanilla

   To the creamed butter and sugar mixture, add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

5. 5

   Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

   Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Start with the dry mixture, then add some milk, and repeat until everything is combined. Mix until smooth but do not over-mix.

6. 6

   Prepare Baking Pan

   Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

7. 7

   Pour Batter

   Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.

8. 8

   Bake the Cake

   Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

9. 9

   Cool and Serve

   Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
