The butter and sugar are creamed together to create a light and fluffy base, and the eggs, vanilla extract, and whole milk are added to the mix to create a smooth batter. The batter is then baked in a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) baking pan until golden and fragrant. The finished cake is tender and fluffy, with a beautiful balance of sweetness and warm spices. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a dusting of powdered sugar for a truly indulgent dessert.
