Super moist Vanilla Cake Recipe
​By: The Blonde who Bakes

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 Cups All Purpose Flour
• 2 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 1/2 Cups granulated sugar
• 1 C Unsalted Room Temp Butter
• 3 Large Eggs
• 1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract 
• 1 tsp Almond Extract
• 1 C Milk

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F
2. Prepare baking pans by spraying the entire pan with non stick spray or butter. This recipe is enough for 2- 8" Cake pans or 4- 6" cake pans 
3. In a large bowl, measure out: flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Whisk and set it aside. 
4. In a stand mixer, Cream the butter and sugar together with a whisk attachment until creamy. (2-3 minutes on medium/high).
5. Slow your mixer down and add in your Eggs, and flavour extracts.
6. Stop mixer, scrape down bowl with a rubber spatula.
7. Put mixer on slow speed, and add in your dry ingredients from the large bowl.
8. Add your milk into the batter. Mix on medium speed until everything is incorporated. 
9. Turn your mixer off, and detach your bowl from the mixer. 
10. Divide your batter evenly into your prepared baking pans. ( I like to fill my pans about 1/2 way full. Nothing above the half way mark. This will help your cake to not overflow while baking)
11. Bake your cakes at 350F. (8' cake for 30-32 minutes) (6" cake for 28-30 minutes).
12. Once your cakes are done baking, let them cool IN THE PANS on a baking rack for about 10-20 minutes. 
13. Once cooled, cut off the rounded cake top while in the pan. Place a cake board on top and flip over. Remove the cake pan. And place your single cake layers in the freezer to set and firm up. 
14. Let the cake layers freeze for about 3-5 hours and then fill yo0ur cake and decorate. 

ENJOY!!!!!
