Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease an 8-inch square baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Make a well in the center of your dry mixture. Add the softened butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Mix until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the fresh raspberries.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top.
  • Place your cake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. Test doneness with a toothpick.
  • Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Slice and serve, optionally with whipped cream or powdered sugar.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter. Incorporate Greek yogurt for extra moisture. Frozen raspberries can be used directly from the freezer. Experiment with nuts and spices for added flavor.
