Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a small loaf pan (approximately 5.5 x 3 inches) or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg to the creamed mixture and beat until fully incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender cake.
Stir in the milk to loosen the batter slightly and ensure a smooth consistency.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve! Enjoy your perfectly portioned mini pound cake.
