How to Make A Quick And Easy White Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups sugar, 3 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Add 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer until combined.
- Gradually add 1 cup milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat for 1 minute until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
