Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

Prepare two 8-inch round cake pans by lining the bottoms with a round of parchment paper and generously greasing and flouring the sides.

Step 3

Be sure to shake out excess flour.

Step 4

Using an electric mixer, beat butter on medium-low speed until creamy.

Step 5

Add sugar and beat until all ingredients are creamy.

Step 6

Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and then stir in your vanilla extract.

Step 7

In separate bowl, whisk together your flour, baking powder, and salt

Step 8

With mixer on medium speed, gradually alternate between adding the flour mixture and the milk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour mixture.

Step 9

Stir until each one is almost completely combined before adding the next.

Step 10

Pause occasionally to scrape down sides and bottom of bowl.

Step 11

In separate bowl, combine your egg whites and using a hand-mixer on high-speed beat until stiff peaks form.

Step 12

Using a spatula, gently fold your egg whites into your batter.

Step 13

Take care to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl so that ingredients are well-combined, and take care not to over-mix.

Step 14

Evenly divide cake batter into prepared pans.

Step 15

Bake at 350F for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake layer comes out clean or with few crumbs (should not be wet).

Step 16

For best results, rotate your cake pans halfway through baking to ensure even baking.

Step 17

Cakes will be a light golden brown when done baking.

Step 18

Remove cakes from oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes.

Step 19

Run a knife around the inside rim of each pan and invert each onto a cooling rack.
