Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of cake flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1 cup of granulated sugar.
  3. Whip 4 egg whites using an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3–5 minutes.
  4. In another bowl, combine ½ cup of whole milk, ¼ cup of melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  6. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter using a spatula.
