Simple white cake







1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
tsp milk
Cream together sugar and butter. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Combine flour and baking powder (tip: I always recommend to sift), add to cream mixture and mix well. Finally stir in milk until batter is smooth.  Line muffin cups with paper liners and fill with 3/4s full of the batter. Bake in 350 deg F for 20 minutes until toothpick inserted and comes out clean. Cool completely before icing.
I used butter cream icing and spread it smoothly on top.  For drop flower use a 2.0 flower tip that you can buy in walmart or in any craft store.
