  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¼ cup confectioners’ sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round pan with butter, then dust it with flour to prevent sticking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes until pale in color.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time to the creamed mixture, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract for added depth.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt; gradually add this dry mixture into the wet ingredients alternating with the milk until combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top; bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
