Vanilla cake recipe

Ingredients:

  1. 2 1/2 cups (325g) all purpose flour (measured properly)
  2. 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  3. 1/2 tsp salt
  4. 3/4 cup (168g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  5. 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  6. 1 1/2 cups (310g) of Illovo sugar
  7. 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  8. 4 large eggs, room temperature
  9. 1 1/4 cups (300ml) milk, room temperature
  10. Sprinkles, for decorating

Method:

  1. Place sugar and softened butter in a large mixing bowl. Cream them together.
  2. In a separate bowl, use a spoon to stir together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl stir together the vanilla, milk, and eggs until well combined then mix everything together continue mixing until it is smooth and fully blended, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Prepare two cake pans by either greasing and flouring them or by spraying the living mess out of them with cooking spray as I do.

Optional: Add in a handful of sprinkles.

  1. Gently fold these into the cake mix because they will bleed their color pretty fast. Divide the cake mix-up between your two prepared cake pans. Bake these at 350 for 30-35 minutes, or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. Let the cakes sit in their pans for 10 minutes. Then turn them out and allow them to cool completely.
