Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Sprite
- 0.5 cup (1 stick) Unsalted butter
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch cake pan, or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs to the butter mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture, alternating with the Sprite. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake has cooled, optionally dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
Slice and serve the Sprite Cake. Enjoy!
