2. 2

   In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Use an electric mixer for best results.
3. 3

   Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Ensure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
4. 4

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Sifting the dry ingredients can help create a lighter cake.
5. 5

   Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined after each addition.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Do not overmix; this can result in a tough cake.
6. 6

   Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: The batter will be thick.
7. 7

   Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

   ⏱️ 50-60 minutes

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Baking time may vary depending on your oven and pan type.
8. 8

   Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

   ⏱️ 15 minutes

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Allowing it to cool in the pan first prevents it from breaking.
