How to Make Golden Vanilla Wacky Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add the milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined – don't overmix!
  4. Add the white vinegar and stir until the batter is just blended. The batter will be slightly thin.
  5. Pour the batter immediately into the prepared pan.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before dusting with powdered sugar or adding frosting (optional).
  8. Slice and serve! Enjoy your magically delicious Golden Vanilla Wacky Cake.
