to make a basic cake, you will need to gather the ingredients including flour, sugar, butter, eggs, baking powder, and milk. preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease a cake pan. in a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients, then add in the butter and eggs. beat in the milk until the ingredients are well-combined. pour the batter into the cake pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. let cool and enjoy.
