Ingredients

For the cake

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs (room temperature)

• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the topping

• 1 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)

How to prepare the cake

Step 1: Prepare the batter

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line a round cake pan with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 2: Mix dry ingredients

In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the batter, alternating with milk. Mix gently until smooth and lump-free.

Step 3: Bake the cake

Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Gently place fresh berries on top.

Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 4: Cool and decorate

Allow the cake to cool completely before removing it from the pan. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
