THE VERY BEST VANILLA CAKE
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks), softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat 2 (8x2-inch) round cake pans with non-stick cooking spray, the bottoms with wax paper and spray the paper.
Beat butter, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large with mixer on high speed 1 minute or until well blended. Add eggs, beat 2 minutes or until fluffy.
Reduce speed to low and beat in milk and vanilla (batter may look curdled) then beat in flour just until blended. Divide batter between prepared pans, spread evenly.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes until wooden pick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool cakes in pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Run small knife or spatula around edge of cakes to release. Revert cakes onto wire rack, remove wax paper and cool completely
Makes 2 (8-inch) cake layers
