Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a round cake pan with parchment paper.

   In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until the mixture is pale and fluffy.

4. 4

   Melt the butter and allow it to cool slightly. Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture, and mix well.

5. 5

   Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix.

6. 6

   Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

8. 8

   Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
