Vanilla Butter Cake

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cups sugar
• 4 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• almost 1 cup milk, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
• 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt (cut back if you use salted butter!)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Add one Tablespoon vinegar to a one cup measuring cup and fill with milk to measure one cup (that explains the almost one cup milk!).
3. Grease and flour pans (9X13, 3=8", 2=9", or 1=10").
4. Cream butter and sugar together until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
5. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each.
6. Mix the vanilla into the milk and set aside.
7. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together in a separate bowl.
8. Add flour to butter/sugar/eggs in two parts, alternating with the milk mixture, beating well after each addition.
9. Divide batter into prepared pans.
10. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of cake comes out clean.
11. Let cool in pans 10 minutes, then remove from pans and cool completely on wire rack.
