Ingredients

For this recipe, you'll need:

1¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup butter, softened
¾ cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup sour cream
1 cup of any additional ingredients (fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, etc.)

Instructions

Before you begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch cake pan with butter or cooking spray and set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time and mix until fully incorporated. Then, add in the vanilla extract and mix until combined.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in batches, alternating with the sour cream. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Then, fold in any additional ingredients you're using.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
