Ingredients:

  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 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 ( I use a sifter to distribute the powder evenly)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9 inch round pan.

In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; stir into the batter alternately with the milk. If the batter is too stiff, a tablespoon or two of milk may be added.

Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack, then turn out into a serving plate. Dust with confectioners’ sugar right before serving.

 

**This simple cake is one of my very favorite recipes year round. I serve it for dessert with fresh fruit or a whiskey sauce, have leftovers for breakfast with fruit and tea, and take it to potlucks with a variety of toppings. You will never go wrong serving this.

Enjoy!
