Ingredients
– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs (room temperature)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup whole milk (room temperature)

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).** Grease and flour an 8-inch round or square cake pan, or line it with parchment paper.

– In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

– In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

– Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

– Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

– Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
– Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

– Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
