Recipe Information
Vanilla Cake
Cultural Context
Vanilla cake is a classic dessert in American cuisine, often served at celebrations such as birthdays and weddings. Its simple yet rich flavor makes it a versatile choice for various occasions. The cake's origins can be traced back to the 19th century when baking powder was introduced, allowing for lighter and fluffier cakes. Today, it remains a beloved staple in bakeries and home kitchens alike.
all-purpose flour
🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour
💰Cheaper: cake flour
Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients, while cake flour can be more affordable.
unsalted butter
🥗Healthier: coconut oil
💰Cheaper: margarine
Coconut oil is a healthier fat option, while margarine can be less expensive.
Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and place a piece of round parchment paper on the bottom.
In a large bowl, add 3/4 cup softened butter and 1 and 3/4 cups white granulated sugar. Mix together for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Add 2 large room temperature eggs and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract to the mixture. Mix well, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
In another bowl, combine 2 and 1/2 cups flour, 2 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Whisk together.
To the main bowl of batter, add half of the 1 and 1/4 cups of milk and mix in.
Add a little of the flour mixture, then the rest of the milk, followed by the remaining flour mixture. Mix until just combined, being careful not to over mix.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C).
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in their pans for 10 to 15 minutes, then remove from the pans and place on a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, place the cakes in the fridge for about 30 minutes before frosting.
Frost the first layer of the cake with a small amount of frosting to help it stick, then place the second layer on top and frost the top and sides as desired.
Decorate with chocolate sprinkles if desired.
