The Best Vanilla Cake Recipe

The best vanilla cake recipe for layered cakes! Easy to make, tastes amazing, fluffy, moist, and perfect for building layers!

==================================
==================================

Recipe: (Makes 3-4 x 6" pans OR 2 x 8” pans)
5 eggs
2 Cups Granulated Sugar (400g)
1 Cup Vegetable oil (240ml)
3 3/4 Cups Cake Flour (480g)
1 1/2 Cup Milk (375ml)
1 Tbsp Baking Powder (15g)
Pinch of salt
1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract (10-15g)

📝 NOTE: Resting the batter is totally optional, you can skip this step and bake right away. I found that resting the batter helps eliminate air bubbles which results in a more even and consistent cake.

I tried so many butter based recipes and could never get the texture right but this recipe literally blows my mind, the cake is so soft and fluffy and takes like the bakery. I made my friends 2 tiered wedding cake with this recipe (and some passionfruit/guava curd) and everyone loved it. It really doesn’t taste oily or cornbread-y, just trust the process!!

Finally. 😐 I never understood what was so hard about simply putting the measurements in the description? After all, some people are deaf and some videos don't have captions.

I messed up a couple of times while making the cake, but it still turned out AMAZING and perfect. I dyed it pink and added strawberries with cream cheese and it was the best cake ever. THANK YOU 💙💙
