Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish with baking spray or grease it with flour.
In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together. Set aside for later use.
In a stand mixer bowl, beat butter and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing briefly after each addition.
Incorporate sour cream, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until well combined, even if it looks slightly curdled.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients on low speed until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Notes

Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature for the best texture.
You can add a streusel topping for a delightful crunch by mixing some flour, brown sugar, and butter together before sprinkling it on top.
This cake freezes well. Just wrap it tightly and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
