Moon Knight Cake Recipes

To help you get started on your Moon Knight cake journey, here's a simple and delicious vanilla cake recipe:

Ingredients	Measurements
All-purpose flour	2 cups (240g)
Baking powder	2 teaspoons
Salt	1/2 teaspoon
Unsalted butter, softened	1 cup (227g)
Granulated sugar	1 1/2 cups (300g)
Eggs	4 large
Vanilla extract	2 teaspoons
Milk	1/2 cup (120ml)

Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 8-inch (20cm) round cake pans. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once your cakes have cooled, it's time to let your creativity shine as you decorate your Moon Knight masterpiece. Happy baking, and may the moon guide your way!
