Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
½ cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Cream Butter and Sugar: In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Prepare the Glaze: While the cake is baking, mix the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Glaze the Cake: Once the cake has cooled for about 10 minutes, remove it from the pan and place it on a wire rack. Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cake and let it set before serving.
