  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making it lighter and more tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Stir in the flour and baking powder gradually. Overmixing can toughen the cake.
