Ingredients:
300 grams cake flour (about 3 cups)
¾ cup butter, softened
1⅔ cups sugar
2 eggs
1½ tsp vanilla extract
1⅓ cups milk
1 Tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
Pocedures:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. Butter and flour two 9-inch cake pans. It can help to line the bottom with a circle of parchment paper cut to fit the pan.
3. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt until everything is blended.
4. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the eggs, butter, sugar and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until fluffy.
5. Now add some of the dry ingredients to the egg-sugar mixture while the machine is running. When it's fully incorporated, add some of the milk. Continue alternating adding the dry ingredients with the milk until it's all incorporated and the batter is smooth, scraping down the side of the bowl as you go. Then pour the batter into your prepared pans and transfer them to the oven.
6. Bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, or with a crumb or two attached. You can start testing after 28 minutes, because it's better to check too soon than to over-baked.
7. Cool the cakes for 10 minutes in the pans on a wire rack, then loosen the edges by running a knife along the sides, turn the cakes out onto the racks and cool for at least another hour, and frost with this chocolate frosting recipe or as desired.
8. Makes two 9-inch layers
