Method
-
- Preheat your oven to 180°C. Grease and line the base of a sponge cake pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and confectioners’ sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the room temperature milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter equally into the cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
