Ingredients:

For the cake:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole milk

For the glaze (optional):

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

For the cake:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the glaze (optional):

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, allowing it to gently drip down the sides.

Notes:

  • Flavor Variations: You can add lemon zest, almond extract, or even a handful of fresh berries to the batter for extra flavor.
  • Storage: Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you’re using a glaze, it’s best to store the cake in the fridge to keep the glaze intact.
  • Make-Ahead Tip: You can bake the cake ahead of time and freeze it for up to 2 months. Just be sure to let it cool completely before wrapping it tightly in plastic wrap and foil.

Conclusion:

White Snack Cake is a versatile and easy-to-make dessert that brings comfort and sweetness to any occasion. With its light texture, subtle vanilla flavor, and sweet glaze, this cake is a crowd-pleaser whether you’re enjoying it for a casual snack or serving it at a special gathering. Simple, delicious, and incredibly satisfying, White Snack Cake is sure to become a go-to recipe in your collection.
