Ingredients
Scale
2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups of granulated sugar
1 cup of unsalted butter, softened (plus extra for greasing)
5 large eggs
1 cup of milk (whole milk is best for richness)
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of baking powder
½ teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of cinnamon (freshly ground adds more warmth)
½ teaspoon of nutmeg
¼ teaspoon of allspice (optional)
1 pinch of salt
Decorations: colored icing, sprinkles, edible glitter, or fondant
Instructions
Preheat your oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your 9-inch round cake pans with butter and dust them with flour.
Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt.
Make the batter: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with the sugar until light and fluffy (about 3 to 4 minutes). Add the eggs one at a time and mix in the vanilla extract. Gradually add the flour mixture, alternating with the milk, until fully combined.
Bake your bases: Evenly divide the batter between the prepared pans and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool and assemble: Let the cakes cool for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Trim the tops if needed, add frosting between layers, and decorate as desired.
