Basic Vanilla Cake
Updated January 15, 2020 
"This made from scratch Basic Vanilla Cake Recipe is a one that must be added to your repertoire. It’s light, tender, and full of vanilla flavor. The great thing about this recipe is it can be made in two 9-inch pans, three 8-inch pans, or two 12-cup muffin pans. It’s versatile and pairs wonderfully with a wide range of fillings and frostings. The batter can even be enhanced with other extract flavors, like almond! Whip up this cake the next time you have a craving and I promise you won’t be disappointed!"

This cake looks delicious. Cheryl Y - I never realized that egg yolks add a slightly yellow tone to the cake. How interesting!

I love this recipe for the Basic Vanilla Cake, It sounds a lot like the recipe I have been using for years. For a true white cake use only egg whites and no yolks. The yolks will give a slight yellow huge. I use pure vanilla and the flavor is tops. Every that has had this cake loves it, some even ask what box cake mix I use? I find this better because you know what is in the mix and it's so much better for you. I should also add that the eggs and butter work best at room temperature. Makes for a lighter fluffier cake. Thank you for sharing this free cake recipe.
