1Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until the mixture is thick and pale.
Melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly. Add the melted butter, whole milk, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture, and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
