Ingredients

• 226 grams unsalted butter, softened
• 400 grams granulated sugar
• 5 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 360 grams all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 240 milliliters whole milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan, ensuring all crevices are coated to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter mixture, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Step 4

Mix in the vanilla extract until evenly distributed.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to combine.

Step 6

With the mixer on low speed, alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the wet mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. (Add the dry ingredients in three parts and the milk in two parts.) Mix just until combined—do not overmix.

Step 7

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the Bundt pan from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes. Then, carefully invert the pan onto a wire rack to release the cake and allow it to cool completely.

Step 10

Once fully cooled, dust the cake with powdered sugar, drizzle with a glaze, or serve plain. Slice and enjoy!
