  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 3 eggs

Instructions
1
Collect all the necessary components required for this recipe.\nPreheat your oven to a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2

3
Mix together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium-sized bowl.
4
Combine sugar and shortening using an electric mixer in a large bowl until they achieve a light and fluffy consistency.
5
Add eggs one by one, making sure to mix thoroughly after each addition.
6
Gradually add the flour mixture and milk to the bowl, alternating between them while mixing just enough.
7
Introduce vanilla into the mixture and pour the cake batter into your prepared baking dish.
8
Place the cake in a preheated oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into its center comes out clean, taking around 40 to 45 minutes.
9
Allow the cake to cool completely before topping it with your preferred frosting.
