Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup milk
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- White frosting
- Red food coloring
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
- Add the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Use an electric mixer to combine.
- Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes, until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once the cake is cool, frost it with white frosting, then use red frosting to pipe baseball stitching on top.
Notes
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for better mixing.
- Don’t overmix the batter; mix until just combined.
- Use a serrated knife to level the top of the cake for even frosting.
- If you don’t have a piping bag, use a zip-top bag with a small hole cut in one corner.
