Melt-in-the-Mouth Vanilla Butter Cake

Ingredients:

• 200g unsalted butter (softened)
• 200g caster sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 200g self-raising flour (sifted)
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2–3 tbsp whole milk
• Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F). Grease and line an 8-inch round cake tin.
2. Beat the butter and sugar together until light, fluffy, and pale (about 3–5 minutes).
3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gently fold in the sifted flour and salt, alternating with a little milk if needed, until you have a smooth, silky batter.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared tin and level the top.
6. Bake for 35–40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Optional finishing touch:
Dust with icing sugar or top with a light whipped cream and fresh berries.
