How to Make Heavenly Light Yellow Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting by beating together the butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  9. Once the cake is completely cool, frost generously and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
