Tips

To make any cake perfect, all the ingredients needs to be at room temperature. The mixing becomes really difficult if the temperature of eggs or butter is on the colder side.

Adding milk makes the cake moist. 

Sifting the dry ingredients makes a smoother batter.

If using a stand mixer, always scrape the base of the bowl in between every step.
