Step 4: Add Flour & Mix
- Gradually add the flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing on low just until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Do not overmix once flour is added — mix until just combined to keep the cake tender.
Step 5: Bake
- Pour the thick batter evenly into the prepared pan. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to remove air bubbles.
- Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 15–20 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Add Glaze
- In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Drizzle over the cooled cake before slicing and serving.
Tips & Serving Suggestions
- Serve with fresh berries and whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for a beautiful presentation.
- This cake tastes even better the next day — store covered at room temperature for 3–4 days.
- Want even more richness? Use half vanilla, half bourbon extract for a Southern twist.
