Rich, buttery cake slices.

One piece of this cake and am sure you are going to 😍 love it …

This cake reminded me again of monginis slice cakes we get in India… This recipe is similar to the recipe Brownie Butter cake, it’s just that there is no layer of brownie along with it… It feels so good when something reminds you of some good memories… this cake definitely did for me 😊.

Enjoy!!!

Butter cake

Prep time : 20 mins

Cooking time: 40 mins

Yields : 1 loaf

Ingredients:

2 sticks (total of 225g) unsalted butter, at room temperature

7 oz (200g) plain flour/all purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

7 oz (200g) castor sugar

4 eggs

½ tsp salt

4 tablespoons fresh milk

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Lightly grease the pan (loaf pan, mini loaf pan, 8×8, or 9×9) with some butter.
  3. Mix the flour and the baking powder together and sieve. Add in salt and mix well. Set aside.
  4. Use an electronic beater to mix butter and sugar until well combined or pale yellow in color. (Note: Sugar has not dissolved yet).
  5. Add in the first egg. Beat well after each addition of egg until creamy.
  6. Scrape down the sides for even mixing.
  7. Add in vanilla essence and mix well.
  8. Fold in the flour into the mixture and mix well.
  9. Finally, add in the milk.
  10. Pour the mixture into the greased baking pan. Shake it lightly to distribute cake mixture evenly.
  11. Bake until golden brown and cooked, about 40 minutes. Use a cake tester to test if it’s cooked.
  12. Remove it from the oven and let cool on the wire rack for another 5 minutes. Serve warm.
  13. Depending on the oven, it may take more than 40 minutes to bake the cake. To prevent the top of the cake from browning too fast, cover the top of the baking pan with a sheet of aluminum foil.
