Classic Yellow Cake
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup butter
  • 8 large egg yolks
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups cake flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all necessary components for the recipe.
2
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
3
Spray cooking spray into two round cake pans with a diameter of 8 inches and coat them lightly with flour.
4
Combine sugar and butter in a large mixing container until they achieve a light and airy texture, similar to whipped cream.
5
Gradually add egg yolks one at a time, followed by the addition of vanilla extract.
6
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
7
Alternate adding the dry mixture to milk in small increments, just mixing enough to avoid over-mixing.
8
Pour the cake batter into the prepared pans.
9
Bake in the preheated oven until the tops of the cakes spring back when gently tapped with your fingers, 25 to 30 minutes.
10
Allow the cakes to cool for 15 minutes before transferring them onto a cooling rack.
