Tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature. This will help the batter to emulsify properly and create a smooth, light cake.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, which will make the cake 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.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in a dry cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting or sliding off the cake.
