White Cake

I wanted to make a cake last night, and went looking online for a good white cake recipe. Found this and it's pretty good. Really dense, but quite yummy.

1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour a 9x9 inch pan or line a muffin pan with paper liners

In a medium bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Beat int he eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. In another bowl, combine the flour and baking powder, then add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Finally, stir in the milk until batter is smooth. Pour or spoon batter in the prepared pan (or muffin tin).

Bake for 30-40 minutes in the preheated oven. For cupcakes, bake 20-25 minutes. Cake is done when it springs back to the touch.
