One Hundred Year Old Butter Cake Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease and flour two 8 inch x 2 inch baking pans and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • Add butter, milk, and vanilla. With a hand mixer, beat for 2 minutes, occasionally scraping down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add eggs and beat for 2 minutes more.
  • Pour batter into prepared pans, dividing equally between the pans.
  • Bake 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven.
  • Cool in the pans for 10 minutes and then turn cakes out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Frost with your favorite frosting.
  • I used my favorite chocolate frosting, the one on the back of the Hersey’s cocoa can.
