Vanilla Cake is one of the recipes that most of the people love to start their baking experiences with, while trying to bake a cake. It is soft, spongey, fluffy and off course, has the heavenly essence of Vanilla. It can be used to prepare cupcakes too. In fact, for many beginners, it is one of the easiest and safest recipe that can be used as base cake for any flavoured frosting. This is the main reason of its huge fan following. Even it tastes amazing without frosting.
Basic Vanilla Cake is a simple and one of the easiest cake recipes. The best part of this recipe is that you don’t need a hand blender to prepare this. I know for many beginners it’s a big challenge to bake a soft and fluffy Vanilla Cake. According to me, this recipe is the best way to start your Cake-baking journey. I have used my mixer grinder to mix the ingredients as that requires quite lesser effort. You can also use Spatula to mix the ingredients as well.
I have prepared this cake basically as a companion with a cup of tea. I have not gone for a moist base this time. In this recipe, I have not used milk. I have used only Eggs and edible Oil (or melted Butter) as liquid contents for this recipe. It gives a perfectly soft, fluffy and bouncy texture which you are going to love.
The very first time I prepared this cake was when my daughter turned one-year old. She was absolutely delighted when she took her first bite of the cake. It is our family tradition of cake-cutting the homemade cake first on our birthdays. So, we tried to follow the same. I learnt this recipe from my Mom.
I love baking. I am surely going to share with you the Moist vanilla cake recipe very shortly with you. You can check few of my dessert recipes by clicking here.
