Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb. butter
  • 2 c. sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 4 c. Presto cake flour
  • 1 c. milk

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter and add sugar, mixing well.
  2. Add eggs one at a time and mix thoroughly.
  3. Stir in the Presto cake flour until well combined.
  4. Pour in the milk and mix well, then beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes.

  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45 to 60 minutes.

Tips & Substitutions

For a richer flavor, consider using unsalted butter and adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract. If you don't have Presto cake flour, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour by removing two tablespoons per cup and adding cornstarch. Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter.

Serving Suggestions

This cake pairs beautifully with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Serve it alongside a warm beverage like coffee or tea for a delightful afternoon treat. You can also serve it with fresh fruit or a drizzle of chocolate sauce to elevate the dessert experience.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week. To reheat, place a slice in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds, or enjoy it at room temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different type of flour?

Yes, you can substitute Presto cake flour with all-purpose flour, but be sure to adjust the measurement by removing two tablespoons per cup and adding cornstarch to maintain the desired texture. This will help keep the cake light and fluffy.

What can I do if the cake is too dry?

If your cake turns out dry, it may have been overbaked. To prevent this, check it a few minutes before the suggested baking time. If it’s already dry, you can serve it with a glaze or syrup to add moisture back to each slice.

Can I freeze this cake?

Yes, this cake freezes well. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil to prevent freezer burn. It can be stored for up to three months. To thaw, simply transfer it to the refrigerator overnight before serving.
