Ingredients
Scale:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened and at room temperature
3 cups granulated sugar
6 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup 7 Up soda
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan to prevent sticking, ensuring the flour lightly coats the sides and bottom.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
Add the eggs to the butter mixture one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the 7 Up soda. Start and finish with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then, invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
