Preparation

Prep Work

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit then line the bottom of each of your cake pans with parchment paper.

Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, sift your flour, baking powder, and salt then whisk them together. Set your dry ingredients aside.

Wet Ingredients

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine your butter, sugar, and vanilla on medium speed. Beat together these ingredients until the mixture is light and fluffy (approx. 8 minutes).

Eggs and Sugar

Add your eggs (two at a time) in then beat until each is completely incorporated before adding in the next two.

NOTE: Scrape down the sides every so often to ensure that you are mixing in all of the batter.

Mix It Up!

Add the flour mixture in along with the milk by alternating the two and beating it until each addition is incorporated. Do not over mix.

Spice-y

In a small bowl, mix together your spices until they are completely combined.

Spice It Up!

Pour half of your batter into its pan then sprinkle on the spice mixture – avoiding the edges. Pour the rest of the batter on top of the spice layer.

Bake

Each pan will require a different amount of time so as reference, bake a 9x13” pan for 40 minutes or 45 minutes for 8” pans all at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place your cake in the oven then bake for an appropriate time. Make sure you rotate your pans halfway through so that it cooks evenly.

TIP: To check if the cakes are ready, stick a toothpick into the centre of the cake then remove it. If the toothpick comes back out clean, it’s ready – but if it comes out with crumbs, the cake needs to bake for a little longer.
