Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Preheat and Prep
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8×8-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  • Step 3: Bake the Cake
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Step 4: Make the Glaze (Optional)
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust milk for desired consistency.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake for extra sweetness and a polished finish.
