Homemade Vanilla Cake

I think next time I will leave out the almond extract. Personal preference and to make it a true vanilla cake. Took 40 minutes to bake. It was a dense and flavorful cake. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

I didn’t have almond extract on hand but it turned out great. I baked it in a 9x13, for 25 minutes. I probably would bring it back to 22 minutes.

Very tasty! I just made it like right now. Right now.

Great recipe, made it exactly as directed and it was delicious.

It is very good. I would use a little bit more of sugar.

Finally, a vanilla cake recipe that's crazy good! Like others I only used vanilla, and I used extra to make up for the lack of almond extract.

This was a great recipe!

i think it was easy to make. i added herbs to the cake also. it was awesome.

It was pretty fire

It's good. I like the almond flavor. I think I might want to use a bit more vanilla next time. It's not too sweet. I liked that a lot. It is also a good texture; not dry but not too moist. It was just right. I loved the simplicity and think I will try a better quality flour the next time. The simplicity of the recipe can greatly benefit from good quality ingredients, I think.

it was great. spooned some fruit over it

I loved this cake even though I improvised! Thanks for sharing it!

Great classic cake. The consistency is perfect. We topped it with a simple buttercream icing.

Needed a quick and easy vanilla cake recipe that I could easily cut in half. Worked perfectly. Little one wanted strawberry cupcakes so we added in pulverized freeze dried strawberries and cake was still good. Baked the cupcakes for 23 minutes. If/when I make this again I'd alternate adding the flour and the milk while mixing rather than adding the milk all at once.

I made this homemade Vanilla cake. It is delicious. I did not have cornstarch so I replaced it with cornmeal. I also did not have almond extract and instead, I used organic coconut oil. It still came out good. It tastes like a muffin and a cake. I love both. So it is a win, win for me. :)

careful with the baking powder... it rises quick.

it tastes great! the only problem was, we used a 9 x 9 sheet and it only rose an inch! it is one of the best cakes I had, so will double the recipe!

IT WAS so good!

Tried frosting it and fell apart into pieces. Tastes great, just don't frost it.

I loved it, I didn't change anything. I'll make it many more times!

As many other people did, I used vanilla extract instead of the almond extract. I also softened the butter before using it, even though the recipe didn't say to.

so delicious! added sprinkles for easter!

It’s a great recipe. I just find the almond extract to overpowering. Will skip it next time.

So good! I recommend adding sprinkles!

Loved this. It turned out so light and fluffy. I didn't have an almond extract, so I ground up pecans into a very fine powder and sifted it into the batter. Will definitely be using this as my default cake batter from now on.

Marvelous cake - loved the size and it was great with cream cheese frosting and coconut on top.

I doubled the recipe and it only made one cake.

I went the double vanilla route and it made a delicious basic cake.
