Vanilla Cake

Sitting in a balcony with a slice of cake and cup of tea, watching all kids playing and varieties of birds flying..Amazing view right? And that too having a slice of cake baked by own was really a lovely moment for me. This cake is my favourite and reminds me of my childhood days..
Very easy to prepare and no need of any frosting !  Just Bake, Slice and Eat :)

 During my last visit to chennai, purchased few baking cake tins...and tried this vanilla cake in snow man shaped cake tin. My mom and son was so excited to see the shape and enjoyed alot. And my dad who was sleeping while preparing cake, got up by the lovely aroma of this cake. And coming to my recipe, Simple, delicious and perfect for tea time.
