Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
Add wet ingredients and mix batter
Add eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla; mix by hand or beat with an electric mixer on low speed until cake batter is smooth.
Pour batter into pan
Pour the smooth batter into the prepared cake pan.
Bake the cake
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 45 to 50 minutes.
Cool the cake
Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert cake carefully onto a cooling rack. Let cake cool completely.
Slice and frost the cake
Use a long serrated knife to slice the cake horizontally through the center. Spread frosting or filling between the layers and replace the top half of the cake. Frost the top and sides as desired.
